After discussions with the European Commission, the FEFC group of shipping companies which provides freight transport services between Europe and the Far East, has decided that it would terminate, with immediate effect, its price-fixing regarding the transport of cars by sea. In addition, Swedish/Norwegian maritime car carrier Wallenius Wilhelmsen AS has withdrawn from the Far Eastern Freight Conference (FEFC). This is an important step towards ensuring that liner conferences comply with EU legislation with regard to tariffs and other operational practices. |
