The national competition regulator today released a position paper detailing what it described as a "robust framework" for reviewing existing and guiding future telecommunications regulation of fixed network services.
The Australian Labor Party said today it would put forward a motion in the Senate to establish an inquiry into regulatory reforms which the telecommunications sector will need after Telstra is privatised.

Australian telecoms is increasingly resembling the US during Prohibition, with Telstra as Al Capone and the ACCC as Eliot Ness.

The Australian Labor Party's ICT shadow minister wants a national fibre broadband network and enough skilled people to exploit it.
