I understand that that which Senator Conroy asserts is not correct. But can I say: talk about sham competitive processes! NBN springs to mind. The Australia Network springs to mind. Senator Conroy would have to be the champion of sham competitive processes. He is shaking his head. I do not think he even pretended it was competitive. It was simply a sham. Of course, that is why Senator Conroy is interested in this matter.

Can I simply indicate that I do not agree with the assertion made by the senator in his question.
