Aides publiques pour la libéralisation de la navigation fluviale Les gouvernements fédéraux et régionaux vont libérer ensemble quelque 1,9 mia. de BEF au cours des trois années à venir pour la libéralisation de la navigation fluviale. Le conseil des ministres a décidé vendredi d'anticiper la libéralisation de la navigation fluviale à l'instar des Pays-Bas au 30 novembre prochain, afin d'éviter que le secteur fluvial et les ports belges ne perdent leur compétitivité. L'Union européenne avait proposé d'ouvrir le marché fluvial fin 1999.

ACCC holds ace up sleeve THE Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has been placed in a difficult position of determining the future of the agreement between Patrick and the Maritime Union of Australia. The MUA has signed the agreement, but has apparently not delivered it to the other parties, awaiting the dropping of all legal action, including that initiated by the ACCC. An informal meeting took place between the ACCC and the MUA late last week and since then the union is believed to have provided requested evidence. Stevedoring levy law guaranteed The Australian Democrats have ensured the introduction into law of the government's Stevedoring Levy legislation, by abstaining from voting on their own proposed amendments to the Bills. This followed a government assurance that if the Bills were returned to the Lower House this week -- with unacceptable amendments attached to them – it would reject the Bills and thereby withdraw its promised funding for waterfront worker redundancies. Ballast toll to kick in tomorrow The ballast water research and development levy on all ships of more than 50 metres will be collected by the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service from tomorrow. The levy, which was agreed to by the Australian shipping industry, is $210 for bulk carriers and $140 for all other vessels. The Minister for Primary Industries and Energy, John Anderson, said the new levy was designed to raise $1 million a year over the next two years to support AQIS's Strategic Ballast Water Research and Development Program to develop a risk assessment system based on types of ship and the voyages they undertake. MUA stronghold to diminish Although much has been made of the fact that the maritime Union of Australia has retained its monopoly on the waterfront, the union has in fact recognised that non-union labor can be employed by the company. The last point of the agreement between Patrick and the MUA states," It is accepted that all parties to future employment arrangement, including contractors, will respect the provisions of the Workplace Relations act including the right to be represented by their union and the freedom of association provisions."
