Melissa Horne, Minister for Ports and Freight has written to the Freight and Trade Alliance (FTA) following its advocacy against DP World increasing access charges scheduled for Melbourne and Brisbane.

According to the correspondence seen by MHD,  Melissa Horne said in an email to Paul Zalai, FTA director on Thursday April 23 that she was "disappointed to learn that DP World is to increase its access charges again for importers at the Port of Melbourne for the second time in four months at short notice".
