A group of nine ISPs sent a letter to the ACCC accusing the telco of stifling competition and urging the regulator to throw its full force behind an investigation.
Was 2007 a good year for Telstra? Possibly. Was it a good year for Telstra's lawyers? Definitely.
A legal battle between the ACCC and Telstra has concluded today following a Federal Court ruling that a 2006 competition notice served by the watchdog is illegal.
update: The Federal Court has found the national competition regulator did not treat Telstra fairly when slugging the telco with a competition notice 12 months ago. The ACCC has expressed disappointment with the ruling.
A group representing rival telecommunications carriers today said the competition regulator should have prosecuted Telstra rather than simply issuing a notice against its bad behaviour on wholesale line rental increases.
With all the excitement over the iPhone, few people have noticed that 1 July was the 11th anniversary of the deregulation of Australia's telecommunications market.
Telstra is determined to create new sources of revenue by investing in new IP infrastructure and building managed offerings around the integration of infrastructure and services. This means turning the company into a new kind of business -- with major implications for the whole economy.
Australia's competition regulator has warned it will act to ensure technological innovations that pose a serious threat to Telstra's dominance of the telecommunications sector are not "strangled at birth".
Communications minister Daryl Williams and his political foe Kate Lundy debate on a wide range of issues, including three most pressing problems facing Australia's ICT industry.
