4 Simplified outline

The following is a simplified outline of this Act:

• This Act provides a system for regulating exports of wheat (other than wheat in bags or containers).

• A provider of a port terminal service who exports wheat, or who is an associated entity of a person who exports wheat, must pass the access test in relation to the port terminal service.

• An exporter of wheat:

(a) who provides a port terminal service; or

(b) who has an associated entity that provides the port terminal service;

must not export wheat using the port terminal service if a person who was required to pass the access test in relation to the port terminal service at a time during the previous 12 months did not pass the access test at that time.

• The Minister may approve a code of conduct dealing with the provision to wheat exporters of access to port terminal services by the providers of port terminal services.
