Among the many highlights of the event were presentations from the ACCC and Productivity Commission. In Canberra, the Jobs and Skills Summit discussed the enterprise bargaining system. Toll Shipping in Tasmania announced it has changed its name to Strait Link and is becoming an independent company, and an investment consortium's proposal to acquire GeelongPort fell through.
