asked the Minister representing the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, in writing, on 10 February 2011:

In respect of a report prepared for the Minister’s department Impacts of Teleworking under the NBN (Access Economics Pty Ltd, July 2010, page 11), where it states that one benefit of teleworking is reduced workplace operational costs, and that the benefits associated with fewer workers in the office would be quantified by a cost benefit analysis type framework: will the Government consider undertaking a cost benefit analysis of teleworking under the National Broadband Network on all aspects of society and economy: if not, why not.
