Australia Odd Joint Issue
Australia has issued set of five Species At Risk stamps. These are a
common design with Norfolk Island issue. To be a bit different Australia also issued a Souvenir Sheet containing five stamps, four of which are Australia and one Norfolk Island. Can Norfolk Island stamps be used on Aussie mail? A joint issue collector like myself must collect both sets as well as the SS to stay in the ballgame. Ralph |

Oops, used Aust stamps till 1947
I was trying to get you Aust post Norfolk Island commentary but they have moved it from their postage guide. I had this previous post , I think from Gazza Interesting to note that Norfolk Island stamps are NOT valid in Oz. Norfolk Island is a self governing territory of Australia, not part of any state but subject to the overall authority of the Commonwealth Government. The limits of its self government are covered by Commonwealth statute. The Norfolk Island Act - gives an island administrator power of many functions including (Schedule 2 item 36) 'Postal Services'. The Aus PO would not welcome Norfolk Island collecting the cash for postal services in the rest of the country. Hence the independence.

Australia Odd Joint Issue
October 20th 2009
Hello Blair, yes, it appears perhaps a little gossip has got out of hand, but I can see where it has come from, (and this may interest Ralphael) When I went Googling, I came across this topic on Stampboards (and I do not know if this is someone yanking our legs) but there appeared a curious Souvenir sheet of Australian stamps together with a Norfolk Island (NI) stamp inclusive. Why would Australian print and charge for a stamp that no one can use bar in NI? The reply from aust post Our Response Unfortunately Norfolk Island stamps are not valid for postage in Australia. Should you have any queries in relation to any of the above, please do not hesitate to call our Customer Contact Centre on 13 13 18.
