Note: Reasons for issuance of these Ministerial Regulations are as follows: whereas it is stipulated by Sections 6 of the Fuel Oils Trading Act, B.E. 2543 that the Minister is empowered to issue Ministerial Regulations to set the rates of fees which shall not exceed those listed in the annexure of the Act such that fees will be determined differently on the basis of size and activities of fuel oils traders or transporters, and as Section 15 paragraph one of the said Act stipulates that payment of annual fees shall be made in accordance with criteria, method and rates set by the Ministerial Regulations, it is necessary, therefore, that these Ministerial Regulations be issued.
