I quote:

AAPT fully supports the Australian government’s initiative to improve the availability of fast broadband services across Australia and considers that the proposed wholesale only approach will benefit consumers as it represents a significant improvement from the current market structure where Telstra, the incumbent, is both dominant and highly vertically and horizontally integrated.

AAPT agreed with the ACCC that the NBN project provides the opportunity to finally correct earlier mistakes where Telstra was left in control. (Time expired)
