Prasa disputes Competition Commission’s reasoning in 'unfavourable' report

JOHANNESBURG – Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa on Friday disputed the reasons cited by the Competition Commission for its prosecution.The agency’s administrator and spokesperson Makhosini Mgitywa briefed the media on a number of matters concerning the railway agency.

It said the railway agency had been favouring its subsidiary Autopax in space allocation and had restricted or denied access to operators who were Autopax's competitors.But Mgitywa said this was simply not true. The commission said its investigation found Prasa’s conduct constituted an abuse of its dominant position as having the only terminal facility in Johannesburg, which was in contravention of the Competition Act.At the same time, Prasa has minimised operations at its mainline passenger services following a deadly collision in Roodeport.After the fatal crash last week, the Railway Safety Regulator instructed Prasa to discontinue the services of the mainline passenger services.
