Nonsense, giving away taxpayer cash for no equity in a company is a stupid idea, and it would also be an immediate write off of taxpayers cash.

The NBN business plan was to give a return on the investment and was to be sold , so it would ultimately have cost us zero.

Hi Glug,

Ok, legislate that companies must also service remote areas as well. Plenty of ways to get around the issue other than having the Government try to manage the roll out, which has been proven time and again to be rather disastrous and simply no longer it's role.

Cheers!.
