Customs Anomaly Removed
pp. 42-43 · Read in the full issue
For Papua And N.G.
AN anomaly which has hampered the operation of aircraft in New Guinea and Papua was corrected by an amend ment in the Commonwealth Customs regulations at the end of June. Austra lian firms which have sent equipment and tools for the temporary use in servicing aeroplanes in the territories have had to pay Customs duty on them when they were brought back to the Commonwealth.
This charge in future will be waived.
