Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Far from doing everything it can to be transparent and open about the NBN, isn’t this failure to release even non-confidential aspects of the business plan a further demonstration that the government is trying to release as little information as possible as slowly as possible about this project? Why is the minister doing everything he can to keep the Australian public in the dark? Is it any wonder the public and the markets are losing confidence in the minister?
