This article looks at the current state of Pt IIIA of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) and the benefits of Australia having a national third party access regime. It includes a brief history of the regime and recent developments. Focusing largely on declaration, the article includes a discussion of the recent High Court and Australian Competition Tribunal decisions regarding applications to declare various iron ore railways in the Pilbara.
