I just don't get it! If Telstra don't want to built it, ask around and see who does. The G8 (Optus, Internode, et al) seem to be putting up their hands. Do Howard Coonan and Co have a conflict of interest in only asking their favourite telco if they want the job? ACCC should just set the rules of the game and see who wants to play. Infrastructure investors will work out if they can make a buck or not. It seems to work for electricty networks, gas pipelines, toll roads and airports.

Here we go again.
The Minister tells Telstra to toe the line and speed up it's negotiations with the ACCC.
Telstra doesn't like the ACCC decision regarding ULL pricing & so it has to go to Court and we wait another 12 months while everyone thrashes around in court.
Telstra spits the dummy and refuses to accept the ACCC or Court decision and changes the price structure again, which isn't in accord with the ACCC or Court decision, so the ACCC goes back to the negotiating table again! Sound familiar?
And so it goes. We, the end users, have to put up with further delays caused by Telstra.
The ACCC fails to use it's powers to get a solution or resolution.
The Minister is unable to use her powers, for some reason which escapes us all, so Telstra continues to behave like a spoilt child.
Australians everywhere will continue to put up with 2nd rate telecommunications until Telstra finally gets the message,...it must provide a Wholesale operation which acts in accordance with government regulations and stops arguing with the ACCC every time the Retail operation doesn't like the competition.
