The government is considering new ways that nbn fixed wireless and satellite services can be funded.
nbn delivers high-speed broadband across all Australia including in regional and remote areas. nbn currently uses the money it makes from delivering broadband in highly populated areas to fund (or cross-subsidise) fixed wireless and satellite broadband in areas with low populations. We need to find out how much it costs and consider ways that other telecommunications companies can help pay for these services.
In May we published an initial consultation paper and received your views on the issues.
This consultation provided an opportunity to comment on the findings and recommendations in our final consultation paper. The submissions received informed our report to government.
