where:

diesel rate means:
 (a) unless paragraph (b) applies—the rate of excise duty applicable to diesel (other than recycled product) classified to item 11 of the Schedule having a sulphur content that exceeds 50 parts per million; and
 (b) if the Collector is satisfied that the sulphur content of the excisable blended petroleum product does not exceed 50 parts per million—the rate of excise duty applicable to diesel (other than recycled product) classified to item 11 of the Schedule having a sulphur content that does not exceed 50 parts per million.

ethanol rate means the rate of excise duty applicable to denatured ethanol classified to item 2 of the Schedule as denatured ethanol for use in an internal combustion engine, as prescribed by by‑law.

previously paid duties means the sum of:
 (a) the excise duties (if any) that have already been paid on goods that are constituent elements of the excisable blended petroleum product and that are classified to item 2, 11, 12 or 15 of the Schedule; and
 (b) to the extent that Customs duties have been paid on imported goods that are constituent elements of the excisable blended petroleum product and that would have been classified to item 11, 12 or 15 of the Schedule if produced in Australia—so much of the Customs duties paid on those imported goods as represents the application of the excise equivalent rate in relation to those imported goods;
worked out in accordance with subsection (4).

volume of ethanol means the volume of ethanol in the excisable blended petroleum product.
