Update to Draft Access Policy submitted by Darwin Port Operations Pty Ltd

On 10 March 2016, Darwin Port Operations Pty Ltd, as the private port operator of the Port of Darwin, provided an initial Draft Access Policy to the Commission.

The access policy aims to provide a framework for port users requesting access to prescribed services, the approach to be taken by the private port operator in determining access and the terms on which access will be provided at the Port of Darwin.

The Commission is considering submissions received and proposed amendments to the draft access policy. The Commission will consult further with the private port operator and interested parties.
