I note that the government’s decision to begin building in Tasmania concurs with the views of some opposition members. The shadow minister for broadband, Mr Bruce Billson, said:
I am calling on Senator Conroy to guarantee the people of Tasmania that they will be among the first in the nation to gain affordable new broadband services …
And of course we have Senator Guy Barnett. He stated on 30 April:
The opposition welcomes Tasmania being the first state to access the network.
