Maritime Services (Access) Act 2000

An award may vary the rights of other customers of the operator under existing contracts or awards if—

those customers will continue to be able to meet their reasonably anticipated requirements measured at the time when the dispute was notified to the Commission; and

the terms of the award provide appropriate compensation for loss or damage (if any) suffered by those customers as a result of the variation of their rights.

An award may require the operator to extend, or permit the extension of, the port facilities under the operator's control if—

the extension is technically and economically feasible and consistent with the safe and reliable operation of the facilities; and

the operator's legitimate business interests in the port facilities are protected; and

the terms on which the service is to be provided to the proponent take into account the costs and the economic benefits to the parties of the extension.
