Application for certification of the Western Australian rail access regime (Draft recommendation)

On 17 August 2010 the Council released its draft recommendation. The Council's preliminary view is that the WA Rail Access Regime meets the requirements for certification and should be certified as effective until 31 December 2015.

Interested parties are now invited to make written submissions in response to the Council's draft recommendation. Parties making a submission should refer to the Council's Guide to making a submission on certification applications and Guide to certification. The closing date for submissions is 5pm on Thursday 16 September 2010. Submissions should be emailed in soft copy (both MS Word and PDF) to the Council at warail@ncc.gov.au with a hard copy sent to:

WA Rail Submissions
National Competition Council
GPO Box 250
Melbourne VIC 3001

The Council will consider the submissions in the preparation of its final recommendation to the Commonwealth Minister who will decide whether or not to certify the regime as effective.
