Thats LNP Privatisation policy for you. Works just fine for the the big companies to take advantage of a Govt.... Costs the Govt massive lost revenue.
All for an ideology that says Govt can't run a business even when its Govt own resources.
IMNO the big problem with Govts running businesses that showed up in the 60/70s was the lack of business acumen of the people appointed to manage, for eg., the electricity generators etc.
