27 Feb NSW Government Announces Port Botany Review and Reform
The NSW Government has released the Final Report of the Independent Review on the Ports and Maritime Administration Act (the Act) and the Port Botany Landside Improvement Strategy (PBLIS).
This report coincides with an announcement by the NSW Minister for Transport, Jo Haylen, of a policy reform program to address the key issues facing the freight industry in NSW. This will focus on the different elements of the supply chain, with ports, rail, road and intermodal facilities all considered as part of a coordinated supply chain to determine the right policy framework to optimise safety, sustainability and productivity.
A priority is to review and consult with industry on the recommendations made in the Independent Review Report to enhance the port regulatory framework and the regulation of the movement of containers at Port Botany. It is expected that the Independent Advisory Panel will commence industry consultation in March.
