Transport Integration Act 2010

This section applies to a mandatory transport safety decision that may result in significant costs or expenses being incurred by a person whose interests are affected by the decision.

Safe Transport Victoria must—

conduct or cause to be conducted a cost-benefit analysis of a mandatory transport safety decision; and

consult with—

the Premier, the Treasurer and any other Minister whose area of responsibility may be affected by a mandatory transport safety decision; and

the person whose interests are affected by a mandatory transport safety decision.

The cost-benefit analysis and consultation must be conducted—

in accordance with guidelines prepared under section 115T; and

before a mandatory transport safety decision is made, unless Safe Transport Victoria considers that the mandatory transport safety decision must be made immediately to protect public safety.

If a mandatory transport safety decision is made immediately to protect public safety, the cost-benefit analysis and consultation must be conducted as soon as practicable after the decision is made.
