  • Industrial relations ripples spread
    The Australian Industrial Relations commission had its hands full on Friday dealing with outbreaks of industrial action on the waterfront action which affected the country's two major stevedores.
    Patrick alleged that members of the union had refused to move several pieces of equipment from No.3 and No.4 Webb Dock to the berth leased by P&C Stevedores Pty Ltd which has also leased the equipment at the centre of the row.
    Meanwhile, P&O Ports and the MUA have reached what is being described as an impasse in their enterprise agreement negotiations for the Container Terminals Australia Ltd facility.
  • Green light for move to enterprise employment
    Full company employment in the Australian merchant marine looks likely by mid-year following a decision by the Australian Industrial Relations Commission to recommend transitional arrangements agreed by shipowners and the Maritime Union of Australia.
    With the Australian Maritime Safety Authority officially relinquishing its administration of the Seamen's Engagement System yesterday, Australian Maritime industry Limited - a company owned by the majority of Australian shipowners - will oversee the move from centralised allocation of seafarers to direct employment by individual owners.
  • ARTC 'rebirth of Australian rail'
    Transport minister Mark Vaile last week announced the establishment of the Board of the Australian Rail Track Corporation, a move he described as the "rebirth of Australian rail."
    The corporation, which will become an official entity on July 1, has been given $250 million which Mr Vaile says will be used to remove rail black spots and thereby improve track speeds and efficiencies.
    "The ARTC will manage access to the standard gauge interstate rail network for all operators, cutting through the kilometres of red tape that have so hampered efficient rail operations until now," the minister said.
  • Future of SA Ports Corp under review
    The South Australian government has advertised for consultants to conduct a scoping study of the South Australian Ports Corporation to assess ownership options for the organisation.
    According to the project brief, the report will be used to help the government determine its long-term policy on sea transport, to prepare the groundwork for the restructuring or sale of the SA Ports Corporation.
  • SPS ships still stuck
    Crews of the two arrested South Pacific Shipping vessels in Sydney and Melbourne were "flexing their muscles" on Friday, preventing the discharge of cargo.
    Apart from outstanding wages, there was disagreement over who should meet the cost of wages since the vessels were arrested, according to solicitors acting on behalf of New Zealand Stevedores.
    It is understood that discharge of cargo should take place fairly quickly once agreement is reached.
