This Act provides new system for regulating exports of wheat (other than wheat in bags or containers). Schedule 1 establishes amendments relating to the wheat export accreditation scheme, as follows: 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. Schedule 2 deals with amendments relating to Wheat Exports Australia; and Schedule 3 repeals Wheat Export Marketing Act 2008.
