Australia: congestion at ports slowing exports

Australian Federal Opposition has announced that congestion at ports in Australia is slowing exports of nation's major commodities. It is also reported that the congestion, slow processing procedures and the long queues at the ports affect export of iron ore and coal negatively, which are very important for Australia's exports. The situation is stated to be affecting country's economy as well. The Opposition also said that the government should deal with the subject and improve country's infrastructure.
