Orders ancillary to price orders.

28.—(1) Whenever the Minister makes in relation to any commodity a price order, and by such order declares that any other commodity shall, for the purposes of such price order, be the principal constituent of such first-mentioned commodity, he shall, before such price order comes into force, and may, thereafter whenever and so often as he thinks fit, make an order (in this section referred to as an ancillary order) fixing such price as he thinks proper to be, for the purposes of such price order, the standard price of such other commodity, and the price so fixed by any such ancillary order shall, so long as such ancillary order remains in force, be, for the purposes of such price order, the standard price of such other commodity.

(2) The Minister may by order revoke any ancillary order.

(3) Every ancillary order and every order revoking an ancillary order shall be published in the Iris Oifigiúil as soon as may be after it is made and shall specify the date on which it is to come into force, and such date shall not be earlier than the date of publication thereof in the Iris Oifigiúil.
