* Victoria amends counting time rules


Victoria,QLD,Australia -ATA Friday Facts -11 Nov 2011: -- The Victorian Government has amended its counting time rules to bring them into line with Queensland, New South Wales and South Australia...  The four states now have a uniform approach to counting work and rest time for fatigue purposes, after a campaign by the ATA and its members...  In June, Australia’s transport ministers agreed to adopt the Queensland and New South Wales approach to counting time. Under this approach, time must be counted forward:
* From the end of a relevant major rest break if one or more major rest breaks are relevant to the time period; or
* In any other case, from the end of a relevant period of rest time.


The Victorian amendments took effect on Tuesday 8 November, two days ahead of the South Australian amendments, which were officially made on 27 October but did not come into force until yesterday...
