Amount of the Levy for 2021/22

I have determined that the Dairy Industry Levy for the 2021/22 financial year will be $688,991 (excluding GST). This amount is approximately equal to the Commerce Commission’s costs for the leviable activities specified in section 134(3) and (4) of the Dairy Industry Restructuring Act 2001 for the 2021/22 financial year.

New co-ops must pay this amount before the end of the 2021/22 financial year.
