I am going to keep this question very short and I am going to ask the minister to commit to responding to this question directly instead of avoiding it by taking a question from one of his own MPs. The question goes to satellite provision of NBN. There are consumers from households all throughout regional New South Wales who are deeply concerned about the performance of this government in rolling out the NBN through the Sky Muster service, including unreliability of service; over 60 towns being forced onto satellite, as opposed to the previous rollout plans that had them on wireless; consistent dropouts; problems with services; and unreliability. Will the minister commit to a full, independent inquiry into the operation of Sky Muster and will he commit to that today?
