The Customs Tariff Amendment Bill (No. 1) 2007 contains minor amendments to the Customs Tariff Act 1995. The bill contains amendments to repeal the current subheading for binapacryl and creates a new subheading for this chemical. This amendment comes as a result of information received from the World Customs Organisation, acknowledging that binapacryl was classified incorrectly in the third review of the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System, which forms the basis of Australia’s customs tariff. I commend the bill to the Senate.

Question agreed to.

Bill read a second time.
