The Commission granted authorisation to PWCS for the Medium Term CDS, subject to a condition, until 31 December 2007. The conditition requires PWCS to provide a report to the Commission by 21 January each year, commencing in 2006. Broadly, this report requires PWCS to outline the progress made by the Hunter Valley coal industry in relation to the coordinated program of investment and any impact on the volume of exports as a result of the Medium Term CDS.
