Australia's Rail Safety Regulator

Rail transport operators have mandatory reporting obligations in relation to their operations - whether it be monthly returns, notifiable occurrences, annual activity statements or safety performance reports.

The Rail Safety National Law was passed through the South Australian Parliament on 1 May 2012 replacing 46 pieces of State, Territory and Commonwealth legislation.

Safety alerts are issued as needed to inform accredited rail transport operators and the broader rail industry of current and emerging safety issues.

Fact sheets, guidelines and policies provide the rail industry and public with key information on specific rail safety issues and legislative, regulatory and technical matters associated with the administration of ONRSR.
