We have a regulatory role overseeing the Port of Melbourne services, unbooked commercial passenger vehicles fares and charges, and accident towing charges.
Transport
We monitor the port's compliance with price setting regulations, develop guidelines, and produce inquiries, studies and reviews that promote the long-term interest of port users.
We regulate maximum fares for unbooked commercial passenger vehicles, which include 'rank and hail' taxis. We also conduct reviews and inquiries that promote the long-term interests of consumers.
We review Victorian accident towing and storage charges, then use our findings to make recommendations to the Minister for Roads.
Prior to 1 November 2018, we approved or reject rail access arrangements, produced codes and guidelines and conducted reviews of rail access regime.
