Queensland Rail Access Undertaking Amendments + Activities

Queensland Rail (QRail) is subject to the 2008 access undertaking the Authority approved for QR Network, as amended to include new tariffs and tariff-setting rules in June 2010. The undertaking applies to Queensland Rail through a Transfer Notice published by the Queensland Government in June 2010 under the Infrastructure Investment (Asset Restructuring and Disposal) Act 2009.

The access undertaking sets out the terms and conditions under which QRail will provide access to rail infrastructure covered by the undertaking. It also sets out the process required for an access seeker to negotiate access to the infrastructure and how any disputes in relation to access are to be resolved.

QRail can seek to amend the approved undertaking through the process set out in the Queensland Competition Authority Act 1997.
