  • Infrastructure Investment Topic: Infrastructure Australia’S Recommendations to the Government Proof Hansard Page: 10 (27 May 2015)
    Rural & Regional Affairs and Transport Legislation Committee ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS ON NOTICE Budget Estimates 2015 - 2016 Infrastructure and Regional Development Question no.: 05 Program: 1.1 Infrastructure Investment Division/Agency: Infrastructure Investment Topic: Infrastructure Australia’s recommendations to the Government Proof Hansard Page: 10 (27 May 2015) Senator Gallacher, Alex asked: Mr Mrdak: We work very closely with Infrastructure Australia. But often project concepts, as they are refined, change, particularly in design. So we are constantly working on costings right up to the point final contracts are issued. Senator GALLACHER: To get a bit of clarity on it, can we ask, perhaps on notice, where Infrastructure Australia have made a decision on a recommendation to government and where the government has taken further advice and made a different decision? Are there a number of projects that stand out there? Would that be a difficult thing to do? Mr Mrdak: We can certainly provide you with advice. Essentially, we provide advice on all projects going to government in relation to that and the level of advice will vary depending on the project. But we can certainly give you an indication of areas, and they do publish a priority list. You can see that on their website, vis-a-vis the areas where the government has announced in its funding program. Senator GALLACHER: Perhaps we could get an example of that and the value of those decisions. Mr Mrdak: Certainly. Answer: Infrastructure Australia does not make decisions or recommend funding be provided by the Australian Government to particular projects. Infrastructure Australia’s assessments of projects are provided to Government without a recommendation about funding, and those assessments are one piece of information considered in the decision making processes of governments.

  • Supplementary Response to the Productivity Commission's Draft Report Inquiry Into Road and Rail Freight Infrastructure Pricing P.G
    Supplementary response to the Productivity Commission's draft report Inquiry into road and rail freight infrastructure pricing P.G. Laird University of Wollongong November 2006 A. Summary of submissions The main submission (#23 - see also #68 and DD77) outlined the difficulties to government in leading reform in the area of road pricing of heavy vehicles, also, why Australia as a nation now needs to make more effort in this area and in infrastructure. 1. Road pricing In March 2006, Australia's Federal and State transport ministers declined to adopt a benign third determination by the National Transport Commission (NTC) of charges for heavy vehicles. This was followed in May 2006 with a Federal budget granting an additional $2 billion in road funding and a $1.2 billion concession in road pricing for heavy trucks. Road pricing for heavy trucks presents a real contest between the competing interests of the road freight industry and the rail freight industry. There appears to be three notable broad groups of estimates for road system costs attributable to heavy trucks: • Conservative - as per the National Road Transport Commission (NRTC) first and second determinations and the NTC third determination. • Intermediate - including the former Inter-State Commission findings during the 1980s, the 1990-91 Over-Arching Group (OAG) recommendations and NSW permit fees for heavier semitrailers and all B Doubles in use to 30 June 1996. • High, or "user pays" - including the Bureau of Transport and Communications Economics (BTCE) 1988 report noted in the draft report, McDonell's methodology (NSW), and ongoing New Zealand Road User Charges.
