Government to regulate shipping lines to restrict the continued increase of freight rates
The Issue
Government to intervene with industry regulatory controls to restrict shipping lines from continually increasing prices and to provide advice/support to reduce port congestion.
- Provide container storage locations near ports to allow overflow of full and empty containers (rather than have containers sat on ships waiting to be unloaded)
- Implement measures to hold Shipping Lines to account rather than continually pass blame and charges on without clear simple reasons.
