The Secretary of State, in exercise of the powers conferred on him by section 4 of, and Part I of Schedule 3 to, the European Communities Act 1972^[1] and of all other powers enabling him on that behalf, hereby makes the following Order:

    1.    This Order may be cited as the Customs Duties (Repeals) (Revocation of Savings) Order 1987 and shall come into force on 1st January 1988.

    2.    Article 2(2) of the Customs Duties (Repeals) (Appointed Day) Order 1977^[2] is hereby revoked.

Alan Clark,

Minister for Trade, Department of Trade and Industry

4th December 1987

This Order revokes article 2(2) of the Customs Duties (Repeals) (Appointed Day) Order 1977. That Order repealed section 12 of the Import Duties Act 1958 (c. 6) but provided by article 2(2) that the repeal should not affect the continued operation of the origin rules for petroleum products contained in the Origin Of Goods (Petroleum Products) Regulations 1977 (S.I. 1977/972).

The 1977 Regulations have been replaced by the Origin of Goods (Petroleum Products) Regulations 1987 (S.I. 1987/2107) in order to give effect to the introduction of the Harmonised System of goods nomenclature into the Community from 1st January 1988. The continuation of the saving provision in article 2(2) of the 1977 Order is no longer necessary following the replacement of section 5(3) of the European Communities Act by the Customs and Excise Duties (General Reliefs) Act 1979 (c. 3).
