Locals claim NBN contracts skip Australia - Communications - News - ZDNet Australia: "NBN Co has been accused of ignoring Australian manufacturers by selecting overseas bidders for its grounds-systems satellite-service tender.

Earlier this week, the company announced that Space Systems/Loral had secured a $620 million contract to develop two Ka-Band satellites for NBN Co for its satellite service, which is due to be launched in 2015. At the time, NBN Co CEO Mike Quigley said that two further tenders around ground systems and launching the satellites will be announced soon, for a total of $1.4 billion."
