Final approval of port tariff book soon

The final approval of the Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA) tariff book by the Ports Regulator (PR) is due to be made shortly, according to PR CEO Riad Khan. But, he pointed out to FTW, this is approval in general – making sure that nothing violates the previous decisions of the regulator, and that the numbers are within the stipulated 4.49% approved increase. However, that approval will not be the be-all and end-all. “There is still room for complaints about specific items in the tariff book,” Khan added. “People can still bring actions before the regulator for any points, words or conditions that they are unhappy about.”
