Status

On 30 May 2013, Airservices Australia (Airservices) submitted a formal price notification to the ACCC proposing increases to its charges for terminal navigation (TN) and aviation rescue and fire-fighting (ARFF) services, effective from 1 July 2013. The proposed price increases are the same as those that were outlined in Airservices’ long-term pricing agreement, which was assessed by the ACCC in 2011. This price notification also included charges for TN and ARFF services provided out of ordinary hours and a new charge for the ARFF Category 6 service at Port Hedland.

The ACCC released its decision to not object to Airservices' price notification on 14 June 2013.
