Schedule 1 Amendment of Biofuel (Ethanol Content) Act 2007 No 23
15 Exemptions from minimum biofuel requirements 1
(1) The Minister may by order in writing exempt a specified person 2
from compliance with a minimum biofuel requirement if the 3
Minister is satisfied that: 4
(a) compliance by the person with the requirement is 5
uneconomic because of the price at which the person is 6
reasonably able to obtain ethanol or biodiesel, or 7
(b) circumstances exist that are prescribed by the regulations 8
as justifying exempting the person from compliance with 9
the requirement. 10
(2) The Minister is not to grant an exemption without first referring 11
the proposed exemption to the Expert Panel for advice and 12
considering the advice of the Expert Panel on the proposed 13
exemption. 14
(3) An exemption can be granted subject to conditions. 15
(4) An exemption can be granted as a partial exemption specifying a 16
percentage that is less than the minimum ethanol percentage or 17
minimum biodiesel percentage applicable under section 6 or 7 18
(with the result that the relevant section then applies to require 19
that the volume of petrol or diesel fuel sold by the volume fuel 20
seller during a relevant period covered by the exemption is not 21
less than that specified percentage of the total volume of all petrol 22
or diesel fuel sold by the volume fuel seller during the relevant 23
period). 24
(5) An exemption that is granted for a specified period remains in 25
force for that period. 26
(6) An exemption that is not granted for a specified period remains 27
in force until it is revoked. The Minister may revoke such an 28
exemption at any time by notice in writing to the volume fuel 29
seller concerned. 30
Note. An exemption from compliance with a minimum biofuel 31
requirement does not affect the obligation to comply with section 11 32
(Returns by volume fuel sellers) or 12 (Keeping of records by volume fuel 33
sellers). 34
16 Business specific exemptions from E10 requirement 35
(1) The Minister may by order in writing grant an E10 exemption to: 36
(a) a person who sells petrol by retail in the course of carrying 37
on a small business if the Minister is satisfied that limiting 38
the sales by the small business of regular unleaded petrol 39
to E10 would cause the business significant hardship, or 40
Page 10
Biofuel (Ethanol Content) Amendment Bill 2009
Amendment of Biofuel (Ethanol Content) Act 2007 No 23 Schedule 1
(b) a person who sells petrol by retail in the course of carrying 1
on a business if the Minister is satisfied that the person 2
sells petrol wholly or predominantly for the fuelling of 3
vessels or watercraft (such as at a marina). 4
(2) An E10 exemption entitles the person to be sold regular unleaded 5
petrol that is not E10 and, accordingly, a primary wholesaler does 6
not commit an offence under section 8 by selling regular 7
unleaded petrol that is not E10 to the holder of an E10 exemption 8
in accordance with any conditions of the exemption. 9
(3) The Minister is not to grant an exemption without first referring 10
the proposed exemption to the Expert Panel for advice and 11
considering the advice of the Expert Panel on the proposed 12
exemption. 13
(4) An exemption from the E10 requirement can be granted subject 14
to conditions. 15
(5) An exemption from the E10 requirement that is granted for a 16
specified period remains in force for that period. 17
(6) An exemption from the E10 requirement that is not granted for a 18
specified period remains in force until it is revoked. The Minister 19
may revoke such an exemption at any time by notice in writing to 20
the person concerned. 21
(7) In this section, a small business means a business that has less 22
than 20 employees. 23
17 Suspension of minimum biofuel requirements 24
(1) The Minister may by order published in the Gazette suspend the 25
operation of a minimum biofuel requirement if satisfied that 26
compliance with that requirement: 27
(a) is uneconomic as a result of the price at which volume fuel 28
sellers are reasonably able to obtain ethanol or biodiesel or 29
industry-wide ethanol or biodiesel shortages, as 30
appropriate, or 31
(b) may result in a risk to public health or safety, or 32
(c) may have an adverse effect on the retail price of petrol or 33
diesel fuel for motorists, or 34
(d) should be suspended for some other extraordinary reason. 35
(2) The Minister is not to suspend the operation of a minimum 36
biofuel requirement without first referring the proposed 37
suspension to the Expert Panel for advice and considering the 38
advice of the Expert Panel on the proposed suspension. 39
Page 11
Biofuel (Ethanol Content) Amendment Bill 2009
Schedule 1 Amendment of Biofuel (Ethanol Content) Act 2007 No 23
(3) A suspension can be granted as a partial suspension specifying a 1
percentage that is less than the minimum ethanol percentage or 2
minimum biodiesel percentage applicable under section 6 or 7 3
(with the result that the relevant section then applies to require 4
that the volume of ethanol or biodiesel sold by a volume fuel 5
seller during a relevant period covered by the suspension is not 6
less than that specified percentage of the total volume of all petrol 7
or diesel fuel (as appropriate) sold by the volume fuel seller 8
during the relevant period). 9
(4) A suspension granted for a specified period remains in force for 10
that period. 11
(5) A suspension that is not granted for a specified period (an 12
indefinite suspension) remains in force until it is revoked. 13
(6) The Minister must keep an indefinite suspension under periodic 14
review and must revoke the suspension when satisfied that 15
grounds for the suspension no longer exist. The Minister revokes 16
an indefinite suspension by notice in writing published in the 17
Gazette. 18
Note. The suspension of operation of section 6 or 7 does not affect the 19
obligation to comply with section 11 (Returns by volume fuel sellers) 20
or 12 (Keeping of records by volume fuel sellers). 21
