Importers and exporters, want their services to be declared "essential".
 
"It is critical that all imports are allowed to flow otherwise we quickly have an estimated 300,000 containers over the next six weeks quickly congesting our wharves and impeding the delivery of all goods," said Paul Zalai, director of the Freight & Trade Alliance.
