I rise to speak on the Telecommunications Legislation Amendment (Access Regime and NBN Companies) Bill 2015. Fundamentally, what this bill points to is the government's failure to provide digital equality of opportunity. We often hear those opposite talking about the previous Rudd and Gillard governments, but they do not talk much about the Howard government. Eleven years in power, a critical time for telecommunications and internet infrastructure, and what was done?
