HOS * Australia - NTC to release time counting recommendations

Sydney,NSW,Australia -ATA Friday Facts -25 Feb 2011: -- Last year, a Queensland truck driver was charged with seven fatigue offences in Victoria, despite counting his work and rest hours in accordance with the interpretation used in Queensland and New South Wales...  Following the issue being raised by the ATA, the NTC established an investigation into the problem. The results of that investigation will be publically released in March...   The National Transport Commission (NTC) will release its findings into variations in time counting rules...  The ATA has worked closely with the NTC on improving how the states count work and rest time under the national fatigue laws...  Enforcement officers in Victoria and South Australia currently apply the work and rest time counting rules differently to enforcement officers in Queensland and New South Wales, even though all four states have adopted the national fatigue laws...  (Photo from Getty Images/cache3.asset-cache: Road Train at Munjina Gorge)
