  • Owners welcome shipping shift
    The Australian Shipowners Association yesterday welcomed the government's decision to transfer shipping back to the Transport portfolio which will now be administered by the former Minister for Primary Industries, John Anderson.
    The association's chief executive, Lachlan Payne, said the removal of responsibility for the industry from Peter Reith's former Workplace Relations and Small Business portfolio indicated that the government would take a less 'hard-line' attitude to reforming the maritime industries now that its major desired changes had been achieved.
    "Shipping is and should be regarded as part of the nation's transport industry and the 'holiday' it had in the Workplace Relations arena presumably served its purpose in that during its sojourn in that place, the waterfront issue was brought to a head and was dealt with," Mr Payne said.
  • Shippers slam plan for Sydney surcharge
    The Australian Peak Shippers Association has reacted sharply to the idea of a congestion surcharge being imposed on Sydney ports.
    The association's chief executive, Frank Beaufort, said yesterday the circumstances that have motivated the surcharge were the poor productivity and ship turnaround times at the Botany Bay terminals due to work bans, go-slow tactics and general apathy towards management by the work force that was sacked and subsequently reinstated by Patrick.
    "Exports and importers deplore the fact that they will be the 'bunny' that picks up the cost of the congestion which is of no making of their own," Mr Beaufort said.
  • Corrigan: Not looking for love-in with Coombs
    Patrick will run its business with or without the cooperation of the Maritime Union of Australia, according to its chairman Chris Corrigan.
    Mr Corrigan told DCN yesterday he was not looking for a "love-in" with the union or to become its national secretary John Coombs' best mate.
    He said Mr Coombs might not agree with the manner in which Patrick was being run, but neither did Patrick agree with the manner in which the union was being run.
    Mr Corrigan said Patrick had a legally binding enterprise agreement and expected it to be honored.
    The signs were that it was being honored with productivity improving, with the exception of Sydney, which had a long-standing history of industrial upheaval.
  • Waterfront dispute 'may boost union membership'
    The battle which erupted when Australian waterside workers were sacked earlier this year might slow the slide in union membership, says Australian union official Bill Mansfield.
    The assistant secretary of the Australian council of Trade Unions was in Wellington last week for the Asian-Pacific meeting of the International Confederation of Trade Unions.
    He said trade union membership had fallen about 30 per cent over the past 10 years in Australia, less than in New Zealand where it had halved since the Employment Contracts Act 1991.
