Mr President, I actually asked the minister to explain exactly what the ‘superior qualities’ are—rather than the infrastructure difficulties encountered—not parity of service. But I will do that now. Can the minister guarantee that Australians living in rural and regional Australia will be able to receive high-definition videoconferencing, which is vital for e-health and e-education, over a wireless broadband connection? If it is that good, will the minister commit to the challenge of running her own office and department on a wireless connection?
