NBN Co must not dodge ACCC oversight - Liberal Party of Australia

NBN Co must not dodge ACCC oversight - Liberal Party of Australia: "The NBN Co has been granted a statutory monopoly – any retail service provider that wishes to sell fixed line communications services to Australian households or businesses will be compelled to deal with it. So framing the appropriate rules for those dealings is critical, and will have ramifications for years to come.
Given its market power and monopoly status, the onus should be on NBN Co to be transparent, fair and consistent in its dealings with carriers. Before obtaining ACCC approval for its Special Access Undertaking, NBN Co must be required to finalise its Wholesale Broadband Agreement and make all terms, conditions and other commercial arrangements available for scrutiny by the public, the industry and the regulators."
