Essential Services Commission. This publication is copyright. No part may be reproduced by any process except in accordance with the provisions of the Copyright Act 1968 and the permission of the Essential Services Commission. CHAIRPERSON’S INTRODUCTION The Rail Management Act 1996 (RMA) sets out the Victorian rail access regime that applies to providers of declared rail infrastructure. The RMA prescribes that the Commission is responsible for administering the Victorian rail access regime. Through Declaration Orders, the Victorian Government determines which infrastructure services are subject to be declared for access. The Victorian regional rail network is declared for access and V/Line is the operator and access provider for this rail network. Under the RMA, V/Line must at all times have an approved access arrangement in place with the Commission. Access arrangements encourage competition and efficiency in the rail freight industry by allowing access seekers (i.e. freight operators) to negotiate access to certain declared infrastructure provided by access providers (i.e. V/Line) in order to enable freight operators to compete in markets where competition is dependent on such access. On 30 March 2012, the Commission received an application from V/Line to renew its access arrangement. On 5 April 2012, the Commission published a notice in the Melbourne Age and Herald Sun newspapers regarding V/Line’s application and undertook a stakeholder consultation process whereby stakeholders and the public were invited to make a submission regarding the application.
