National Code of Practice
I SEPTEMBER 2007 NATIONAL CODE OF PRACTICE Retrofitting Passenger Restraints to Buses Prepared by Vehicle Design & Research National Transport Commission National Code of Practice for Retrofitting Passenger Restraints in Buses Report Prepared by: Vehicle & Design Research ISBN: 1 921168 04 8 2 NATIONAL CODE OF PRACTICE: RETROFITTING PASSENGER RESTRAINTS TO BUSES FOREWORD The National Transport Commission (NTC) is a statutory body established by an inter-governmental agreement to progress regulatory and operational reform for road, rail and inter-modal transport to deliver and sustain uniform or nationally consistent outcomes. Following the research that was commissioned for the NSW Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA) into the retrofitting of seatbelts for buses and coaches, as well as advice from the Bus Industry Confederation, it was concluded that the original guidelines (“Guidelines for the Voluntary Modification of Existing Buses and Coaches to Improve Occupant Protection”) needed to be revised. These guidelines were originally developed in 1994 by the National Road Transport Commission, the Federal Office of Road Safety and the Australian Bus and Coach Association. The NTC led the review and a Bus Seatbelts Steering Committee was involved in providing key input and overall direction on the review. A Code of Practice, which is intended to replace the original guidelines, has been prepared. It sets out requirements for modification of existing buses with the intention of improving occupant protection in crashes. The Code of Practice has been endorsed by the Bus Seatbelts Steering Committee and by Transport Agency Chief Executives after a period of public/stakeholder consultation. It was approved by the Australian Transport Council in August, 2007. -

Buses – Global Market Trends
2017 BUSES – GLOBAL MARKET TRENDS Markets – Competition – Companies – Key Figures Extract from the study BUSES – GLOBAL MARKET TRENDS Markets – Competition – Companies – Key figures In all regions across the globe, buses remain the most widespread public transport mode. Their demand goes hand in hand with several, mostly region-specific factors, including demographics, increasing mobility of people and environmental awareness, as well as public funding. Buses are comparatively to other transportation modes cheap and easy to use, since their use does not necessarily require the implementation of a specific infrastructure. This makes buses ideal vehicles for both short- and long-distance services. Based on the current developments, this Multi Client Study offers a comprehensive insight into the structure, volumes and development trends of the worldwide bus market. In concrete terms, the market study “BUSES – GLOBAL MARKET TRENDS” includes: A look at the worldwide market for buses differentiated by region An analysis of the relevant market data including present and future market volumes Information concerning the installed fleet and future procurement potential until 2022 An assessment of current developments and growth drivers of the worldwide bus markets in the individual regions An overview of bus manufacturers including an analysis of the market shares, financial backups as well as a brief description of the current product portfolio and strategy outlook A list of the major production facilities in each of the regions including product range as well as production capacities Presentation of the development stage of alternative propulsions, their manufacturers and their occurrence worldwide The study is available in English from the August 2017 at the price of EUR 3,400 plus VAT. -

Big Business in Twentieth-Century Australia

Household names, often with preserved archives, have had their company stories written by academics, journalists, and former senior employees. Broader national studies have analysed the role that big business has played in a country’s economic development. While sometimes this work has alleged oppressive anti-competitive behaviour, much has been written from a more positive perspective. Business historians, influenced by the pioneering work of Alfred Chandler, have implicated the ‘visible hand’ of large scale enterprise in national economic development particularly through their competitive strategies and modernised governance structures, which have facilitated innovation, the integration of national markets, and the growth of professional bureaucracies. While our understanding of the role of big business has been enriched by an aggregation of case studies, some writers have sought to study its impact through economy-wide lenses. This has typically involved constructing sets of the largest 100 or 200 companies at periodic benchmark years through the twentieth century, and then analysing their characteristics – such as their size, industrial location, growth strategies, and market share - and how they changed over time. -
