EXCISE TARIFF ACT 1921 - SECT 6AAA

Rounding of fuel duty rates

  (1)   Despite subsection   6A(2), the amount to be worked out under subsection   6A(1) in respect of an indexation day for a CPI indexed rate covered by subsection   (3) of this section is to be rounded to 3 decimal places (rounding up if the next decimal place is 5 or more).

  (2)   For the purposes of section   6A, determine the CPI indexed rate on the day before the indexation day as mentioned in subsection   6A(1) on the assumptions that:

  (a)   the operation of subsection   (1) of this section was disregarded in respect of all previous indexation days (if any); and

  (b)   subsection   6A(2) permitted amounts worked out under subsection   6A(1) in respect of those indexation days to be rounded to 5 decimal places (rounding up if the next decimal place was 5 or more).

  (3)   This subsection covers the following CPI indexed rates:

  (a)   a rate of duty set out in item   10 of the Schedule, other than in:

  (i)   subitem   10.6 or 10.17; or

  (ii)   subitem   10.7, 10.12, 10.20, 10.21 or 10.30;

  (b)   the rate set out in step 3 of the method statement in subsection   6G(1) (about duty payable on blended goods).

  (4)   In this section:

"CPI indexed rate" has the same meaning as in section   6A.

"indexation day" has the same meaning as in section   6A.
