April 2011 Extension DAAU

Extension of Termination Date

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.

On 21 April 2011, the Authority received from QRail a draft amending access undertaking (DAAU) to extend the termination date of its 2008 undertaking from 30 June 2011 to 30 June 2012.

On 27 April 2011, the Authority issued QRail with a notice of investigation and sought submissions from stakeholders. The Authority received submissions from three stakeholders, all of which either favoured the extension, or did not oppose it being granted.

On 19 May 2011, the Authority approved the DAAU. Accordingly, QRail's 2008 access undertaking now terminates on 30 June 2012.
