ACIL Tasman has over
two decades of experience in providing
analysis and advice on the economic
aspects of regulation. Our experience
encompasses regulatory reform,
privatisation and corporatisation,
utility regulation including price
reviews, environmental regulation and
the regulation of access in key
infrastructure industries. Our
experience and expertise covers all key
utilities and infrastructure industries,
including electricity, transport, aged
care, gas and water.
Underpinning the
success of our practice is a group of
consultants who are experts in their
fields. Their knowledge and skills add a
dimension of innovation and insight to
our products and services. Our practical
experience is supported by a sound
understanding of the literature and of
overseas developments. We often assist
companies make regulatory review cases
to regulators and regulatory poling
cases to governments. Our work often
complements that of legal advisors, for
example with respect to issues arising
under Part IIIA of the Trade Practices
Act. Thus we can interface efficiently
with legal advisers and jointly produce
material suitable for regulators.
