The National Freight Task

• This trend is expected

to continue at a growing rate over the next 40 years

Australia’s freight logistics industry

• Australia’s rising freight task is expected to:

– Increase by 80% between 2010-2030

– Nearly triple by 2050

• Victoria’s Freight and Logistics sector contributed between $19-23 billion of the State’s economy in 2011

Australia’s freight logistics industry

• Represented 8.6% of the nation’s GDP in 2013

• Directly contributed $131.6 billion to Australia’s economy in 2013.

• A 1% improvement in efficiency will yield a $2 billion-a-year benefit

ALC supports long term lease of the Port of Melbourne

• Recycling of assets can realise needed funds for new logistics infrastructure projects if ‘properly done’

– Through explaining to the community the financial reason for asset disposal

– Clearly identifying public benefits

• Proposal must possess a net positive benefit

• Funds raised must be invested in the productivity enhancing infrastructure

• The asset should not be pursued to the detriment of competition and freight efficiency

• ALC generally supports the passage of the Bill

• Legislation can be strengthened – How the port is regulated and how the funds raised are spent

– Economic regulation must be sufficiently rigorous

• ALC welcomes announcement that the ESC will have power to conduct reviews

• Victorian Transport Fund – Proceeds from the ports long term lease must be prioritised

• ALC believes Investments in Infrastructure should be informed by Infrastructure Victoria

ALC encourages a review of Australia’s port needs

• No immediate need to develop a second Victorian port

• ALC would like IA to review Australia’s port needs over the next 30 years

• Must consider land preservation to underpin the efficient use of the asset in the future

• Encouraging the development of Inland Rail

• Implementing practical measures to accelerate necessary road reforms

• Prioritising the efficient use of High Productivity Vehicles travelling to and from Australia’s major ports

• Ensuring there is greater focus on achieving efficient rail linkages between intermodal terminals and ports, running in conjunction with a major review of Australia’s port needs over the next 30 years

• Establishing a defined and measurable definition of the ‘efficient use’ of existing and future infrastructure

• Identifying where investments in technology improvements will deliver the greatest economic return

• Encouraging and prioritising private sector investment in logistics infrastructure to improve the efficiency and competiveness of Australia’s supply chains.
