Extension of the 2008 Interstate Access Undertaking (to 31 December 2024)

On 7 May 2024 the ACCC sent a letter to stakeholders seeking comments on ARTC's proposal to extend the term of the Interstate Access Undertaking to 31 December 2024. The extension is intended to provide sufficient time for consultation on ARTC’s proposed replacement undertaking. It will also ensure there is no uncertainty for users as to whether the statutory assessment processes will be finalised before the existing undertaking would have expired on 30 June 2024.

Submissions are due to transport@accc.gov.au by 5:00pm (AEST) Wednesday, 22 May 2024.
