Container stevedoring: monitoring report no. 12

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission monitors prices, costs and profits of container stevedoring terminal operator companies at the ports of Adelaide, Brisbane, Burnie, Fremantle, Melbourne and Sydney under a direction from the Treasurer.

Industry performance in 2009–10 was largely affected by increased demand for stevedoring services associated with improved economic conditions following the impact of the global financial crisis during 2008–09.
