The contract is for the operation of the Brisbane River ferry services and the maintenance of the vessels and associated infrastructure. SeaLink’s services are planned to commence on 4 November 2020 for a term of up to 15 years and will secure up to 250 local jobs, as well as the operation of 31 vessels and add millions of passengers to the 360 million passengers that the group already moves globally each year. The total contract revenue over the initial ten year term is estimated at approximately $390 million. According to SeaLink Group CEO, Clint Feuerherdt, securing this contract demonstrates the performance capabilities, expertise and strength of the combined group of SeaLink companies. “We had a vision to combine SeaLink’s marine experience and capabilities with Transit Systems’ public transport experience, to become a truly multi-modal transport provider.” “We look forward to working with the Brisbane City Council to deliver innovative and efficient transport services and bringing our people together to deliver a world-class ferry experience in Brisbane,” he said.

SeaLink is a listed public company in the top 300 on the ASX and welcomes the opportunity to present a report on taxes paid in Australia and the Company’s tax strategy. SeaLink currently has no direct dealings overseas and therefore is limited to one tax jurisdiction. In this respect, we have adopted the recommendations of Part A of the Board of Tax’s voluntary “Tax Transparency Code” (“TTC”). SeaLink is considered to be a ‘medium’ business for the purposes of the TTC because its Australian turnover was greater than $100 million and less than $500 million during the 2016 year. We support the adoption of this voluntary code and believe it provides users with a comprehensive picture of SeaLink’s tax profile. SeaLink has a strong commitment to transparency and compliance from a regulatory and financial perspective and values the principle of being transparent with respect to its tax strategy and compliance. The Audit and Risk Committee has committed to update and review this report and approach annually.
