Summary

Introduced with the Customs Tariff Amendment Bill (No. 1) 2003, the bill amends the

Customs Act 1901
to introduce rules for determining whether goods originate in Least Developed Countries, East Timor (a developing country) or Singapore (for the purposes of a free trade agreement), which will enable such goods to have duty-free access to Australia.

We acknowledge the traditional owners and custodians of country throughout Australia and acknowledge their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to the people, the cultures and the elders past, present and emerging.
