(2) For regulations 6 and 7, the volume of the fuel is: (a) if the fuel is to be measured through a bulk filling meter — the volume of the fuel measured on the totaliser of the meter corrected to 15º Celsius; or (b) in any other case — the volume determined by physical measurement of the fuel, converted to its notional volumetric equivalent at 15º Celsius. (3) In this regulation: relevant licence means any of the following that makes the claimant a licensed person for the fuel at the qualifying time: (a) a manufacturer licence as defined in the Excise Act 1901; (b) a storage licence as defined in the Excise Act 1901; (c) a permission given under section 61C of the Excise Act 1901; (d) a permission granted under section 69 of the Customs Act 1901.
