Reporting


This section fulfils the requirements of section 35 of the Product Stewardship (Oil) Act 2000 and covers the operation of that Act and the operation of the Product Stewardship for Oil program from 1 July 2011 to 30 June 2012.

Product stewardship levy


In 2011–12 total revenue collected from the product stewardship levy was $33.4 million, comprising $22 million in excise collections on domestic production and $11.5 million in customs duty on imported oils. An amount of $2.8 million was paid back to clients in the form of drawbacks (for export) and refunds, bringing the balance of revenue from the levy to $30.6 million.

Levy collections are recorded against a number of categories, based on the type of oil. Customs duty is recorded under international customs classifications. Tables13 and 14 show excise and customs tariff collections for 2011–12, by category.


Product stewardship benefits


A total of $35.6 million was paid as product stewardship benefits in 2011–12, with $32.9 million paid to recyclers for recycling used oil.1 This is an increase of $0.2 million in benefits for recycling compared to 2010–11.

The volume of recycled oil on which benefits were paid in 2011–12 was 271 million litres, compared to 269 million litres in 2010–11. Figure 2 shows the annual volume of used oil recycled since the program began.

Figure 1: Annual volume of oil recycled since the Product Stewardship for Oil program began

Note: The pre-PSO program value is an industry estimate. Program benefits commenced in January2001; therefore, the 2000–01 value was derived from data covering only six months.

The above graph shows the annual volume of used oil claimed in each category since the program began. Table 15 provides a breakdown by product category for 2011–12, indicating volumes recycled and benefit payments.

The volume of recycled oil claimed in category one in 2011–12 was an increase of 1.7million litres on 2010–11. The volume claimed in category five decreased by 6.6million litres while the volume in category six increased by 6.9million litres.
