WCAG submission to the Productivity Commission Inquiry into TUSO
Post date: 07-Feb-2017 08:23:09
In the interests of exposing the poor internet connectivity in our region and the continued lack of responsibility shown by NBN (by putting us onto a Satellite service), WCAG provided the attached submission to the Productivity Commission's Telecommunications Universal Service Obligation Inquiry.
This covers
The current lack of adequate broadband in areas such as ours;
The increasing digital divide between metropolitan and urban fringe populations;
Recommendations for minimum guaranteed communications services; and
Recommendations to ensure continued pressure on ADSLx service providers to keep existing services up and running (and maintained) in the interim period until we can be guaranteed a better broadband solution.
