The Federal Government has stifled a proposed Senate inquiry into the state of broadband competition in Australia, raising the ire of the Opposition and industry groups.
According to Communications Minister Helen Coonan, Telstra is trying to engineer a win for the Opposition in the upcoming election -- and the telco's execs should run for Labor MPs.
The Senate has voted to set up an inquiry into the pricing and competition regime of broadband, after the initially rejected bill was enhanced with additional terms of reference.
Australia's telecommunications industry is about to see a major structural shift as it did upon the opening of competition in 1997.
Telstra boss Sol Trujillo is expected to conduct a number of briefings over the next two weeks in the lead-up to a keynote speech at the National Press Club.
