My question is to the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Senator Conroy. Can the minister inform the Senate of how the telecommunications regulatory reforms introduced this week and the government’s National Broadband Network initiative will benefit consumers and small businesses in rural and regional Australia? In particular, can the minister advise the Senate when people in rural and regional Australia are likely to see the benefits of these initiatives?
