Problem being addressed
Legislation set to sunset and be remade.
Proposal
The Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts has certified that the Coastal Trading (Revitalising Australian Shipping) Regulation 2012 was operating effectively and efficiently and has been remade. This certification was informed by a consultation process with industry on potential reforms to Australia’s coastal trading regulatory framework that took place between 2019 to 2021. No concerns or issues with the operation of the Regulation, including its fee structure, were raised in consultation. Accordingly, the Regulation has been remade with minor changes removing redundant transitional provisions and simplifying language.
