For the purposes of clause 39(4) and (5) of Schedule 3 to the Act, the application of the Arbitration Act is modified in accordance with this Part.
The provisions of this Part are to be read as if they formed part of the Arbitration Act and any reference in that Act to an arbitration agreement is taken to be a reference to the requirements of this Part.
This Division applies instead of Part 2 (Appointment of arbitrators and umpires) of the Arbitration Act.
The Secretary is to compile a list of one or more persons (the
The Secretary may include a person in the arbitrators panel list only if—
(a) the Secretary is satisfied that the person has demonstrated experience in the bus industry or other transport industry and, in particular, in the valuation of bus service assets or similar kinds of assets, and
(b) the person consents to being included in the list, and
(c) the Secretary has given the Association written notice of the person’s name and qualifications for appointment (an
inclusion notice ), and(d) the Association has given the Secretary its written consent to the person’s inclusion in the list.
For the purposes of subclause (2)(d), the Association is taken to have consented to a person’s inclusion in the arbitrators panel list if the Association fails, within 7 working days after receiving an inclusion notice, to inform the Secretary in writing about whether or not it consents to the person’s inclusion in the list.
The Secretary may, in consultation with the Association, amend or revoke the arbitrators panel list.
The Secretary may appoint a person who is an arbitrators panel member to be the arbitrator in a valuation arbitration if—
(a) an existing service provider (the
applicant ) has made an application to the Secretary under clause 39(2) of Schedule 3 to the Act in respect of a bus service asset, and(b) the existing service provider has provided such details concerning the bus service asset as the Secretary considers necessary to identify the asset.
The power to appoint an arbitrator conferred by subclause (1) extends to the appointment of a new arbitrator in place of an arbitrator who dies or otherwise ceases to hold office.
The Secretary must, within 10 working days after receiving the application, decide whether to refer the valuation of the bus service asset in question for a valuation arbitration and give the applicant—
(a) if the Secretary decides to refer the valuation of the bus service assets for a valuation arbitration—written notice of the following—
(i) that the Secretary has decided to refer the valuation for arbitration,
(ii) the name of the arbitrator to be appointed by the Secretary to conduct the valuation arbitration, or
(b) if the Secretary decides not to refer the valuation of the bus service asset for a valuation arbitration—written notice of that decision.
In its application to a valuation arbitration, references (however expressed) in the Arbitration Act (as modified by this Part) to the parties or any party are to be read as references to the following—
(a) the existing service provider who has made an application to the Secretary under clause 39(2) of Schedule 3 to the Act in respect of the bus service asset in question in the valuation arbitration,
(b) the proposed new service provider to whom the existing service provider wishes to sell or otherwise dispose of the bus service asset.
An arbitrator must commence the valuation arbitration within 7 working days (or such further period as the parties may agree or, in the absence of such an agreement, as the Secretary may allow) after the arbitrator’s appointment.
Section 14 of the Arbitration Act provides that, subject to that Act and the provisions of the arbitration agreement (which is taken to be this Part by clause 219(2)) the arbitrator in a valuation arbitration may conduct the proceedings in such manner as the arbitrator thinks fit.
Without limiting the duties of the parties to a valuation arbitration under section 37 of the Arbitration Act—
(a) the applicant must make the bus service assets in question available for inspection by the arbitrator at the times and places requested by the arbitrator, and
(b) each party must not provide the arbitrator with any document or other information that is false or misleading in a material particular.
In determining the valuation of any bus service assets in question in a valuation arbitration, the arbitrator must apply the following principles—
(a) the valuation of the asset must be determined by reference to the market value of the asset having regard to the following—
(i) the price that a willing, but not anxious, purchaser would be prepared to pay for the asset for use in the provision of a regular bus service,
(ii) the price that a willing, but not anxious, vendor would accept as payment for the asset,
(b) the asset’s value to the applicant as a going concern must be included in the valuation,
(c) the value of any intellectual property of the applicant (such as logos and trademarks) used in connection with the asset must not be included in the valuation.
The term
This clause prevails over the provisions of section 22 of the Arbitration Act to the extent of any inconsistency.
An award (whether or not final) made in a valuation arbitration must be limited to the determination of the valuation of the bus service assets in question.
The following provisions of the Arbitration Act do not apply with respect to an award or arbitrator in a valuation arbitration—
(a) section 24 (Specific performance),
(b) section 31 (Interest up to making of award),
(c) section 32 (Interest on debt under award).
The arbitrator in a valuation arbitration may not make a final award in the arbitration unless the arbitrator has provided the parties to the arbitration with a draft award for comment in accordance with this clause.
The arbitrator must provide the parties with a draft award for comment within 15 working days (or such further period as the parties may agree or, in the absence of such an agreement, as the Secretary may allow) after the conclusion of the arbitration hearing.
The arbitrator must provide the parties with an opportunity to make written submissions concerning the draft award within a period (being a period of not less than 5 working days) specified by the arbitrator (the
The parties to a valuation arbitration in which a draft award has been given may make written submissions to the arbitrator concerning the draft award, but only if the submissions are made within the submission period.
Any party that makes a written submission during the submission period must provide the other party with a copy of the submission as soon as is reasonably practicable after making the submission.
This clause prevails over the provisions of the Arbitration Act concerning the making of awards to the extent of any inconsistency.
The arbitrator in a valuation arbitration must provide the parties with a final award within 5 working days (or such further period as the Secretary may allow) after the expiry of the submission period for the draft award referred to in clause 228.
In making a final award in a valuation arbitration, the arbitrator—
(a) must take into account any written submissions made by the parties under clause 228 within the submission period, and
(b) must not take into account any written submissions made by the parties after the expiry of the submission period.
The arbitrator must provide the Secretary with a copy of the final award as soon as is reasonably practicable after making the award.
Without limiting clause 39(6) of Schedule 3 to the Act, and subject to any review under section 38 of the Arbitration Act, the Secretary should endeavour to make a decision as to whether or not to require the proposed new service provider to acquire any bus service assets that have been the subject of a final award in a valuation arbitration at the determined valuation within 7 working days after receiving a copy of the final award.
This clause prevails over the provisions of the Arbitration Act concerning the making of awards to the extent of any inconsistency.
The fees and expenses of the arbitrator in a valuation arbitration are to be borne jointly by the parties to the arbitration.
Any other costs incurred by a party to the arbitration are to be borne by that party.
This clause applies instead of sections 34 and 36 of the Arbitration Act.
If the applicant in a valuation arbitration withdraws the application made to the Secretary under clause 39(2) of Schedule 3 to the Act in respect of the bus service assets in question before the conclusion of the arbitration, the arbitrator must terminate the arbitration as soon as the arbitrator receives a written notice from the Secretary to that effect.
Nothing in this clause affects the operation of clause 230.
This clause prevails over section 18 of the Arbitration Act and any other provision of that Act to the extent of any inconsistency.
An authorised officer carrying out an inspection under Division 2 of Part 4C of the Act of a vehicle used for the purposes of a public passenger service may affix a label (a non-compliance label) to the vehicle if it appears to the authorised officer that the vehicle does not meet the requirements set out in clause 17.
