2009 Draft Access Undertaking
On 9 September 2008, QR Network submitted a voluntary draft access undertaking (the 2009 DAU) to the Authority for its approval. The 2009 DAU sets out the new terms and conditions under which QR Network proposes to provide access to rail infrastructure covered by the undertaking once its current access undertaking expires on 30 June 2009.
Under section 136 of the Queensland Competition Authority Act 1997 (the QCA Act), the Authority must consider QR Network's 2009 DAU and either approve or refuse to approve.
On 10 September 2008, the Authority issued QR Network with a notice of investigation, under s. 146 of the QCA Act, stating its intention to undertake an investigation.
As part of its investigation of QR Network's 2009 DAU, the Authority has invited written submissions from interested parties.
To assist in the preparation of those submissions, on 24 October 2008 the Authority has prepared an Issues Paper that summarises QR Network's proposal and identifies key issues from the Authority's perspective.
Submissions on the 2009 DAU are now due by 14 November 2008 (previously 5 November).
Copies of QR Network's proposal, and the issues paper, can be downloaded below.
