Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Given that the minister has claimed that the break-up of Telstra is ‘not without cost’, has the government undertaken a thorough analysis of the costs to the company, shareholders, employees and the telecommunications sector of imposing structural separation on Telstra? If so, will it table such analysis? Further, is the Communications, Electrical and Plumbing Union right to be worried that the government’s plans will put thousands of jobs under intense pressure?
