Under Aurizon Network’s 2010 access undertaking, Aurizon Network had to obtain the QCA’s approval every year of Aurizon Network’s proposed roll-forward of its regulatory asset base (RAB).

The roll-forward of the RAB takes into account our approved capital expenditure and calculates other components, such as inflation and depreciation, in accordance with the undertaking.

On 27 July 2012, we approved Aurizon Network’s roll-forward of its CQCR regulated asset base for 2009–10.  The roll-forward included $282.2 million of 2009-10 capital expenditure we approved  in March 2012.

We re-made this decision on 26 October 2012, as the earlier July 2012 decision included an error that undervalued the closing asset value (as at 30 June 2010) by $5.8 million—the approved RAB as at 30 June 2010 was $3,480.2 million.
