Rabbit Skin Levy Increased to 94 per ton in 1941
The Australian Rabbit Skins Board recommended raising the levy on rabbit skins shipped from Australia under the Rabbit Skin Port Charges Regulations. On Monday June 9 1941 the Minister announced the increase to 94 per ton due to high market prices to keep the Rabbit Skins Marketing Control Scheme functioning. Prices for a hatters grade rose from 18d in 1939 to 75d-80d this year, peaking at 86d, aiding farmer incentives despite higher costs and brokers commissions. The levy remains integral to the country’s export returns and scheme stability amid fluctuating market conditions.
