REGULATIONS * Australia - BIC calls for changes to PBS for bus and coach industry
Australia -ABC -24 February 2009: -- The Bus Industry Confederation (BIC) is calling on the National Transport Commission (NTC) to provide a separate Performance Based Standard (PBS) directly relating to buses and coaches in its response to the PBS discussion paper... BIC states there are clear advantages for the PBS Scheme to look at passenger transport vehicles, (buses and coaches) in a different manner than freight vehicles and argues that the PBS standards as they are currently assessed, limit the uptake of the scheme because it is predominantly a pass/fail process based on freight vehicles and therefore is seeking greater flexibility in assessing PBS passenger vehicles. This means, in essence, a review of the purpose of PBS by the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) and the Australian Transport Council (ATC).
