This proposal has two components.

• Component 1: Finish the NBN using the best long-term technology solutions (including fixed wireless and fixed line services, with satellite the technology of last resort, where no other options are possible) and make it available to all Australians by ensuring regional telecommunications are funded, fair and fit for purpose. This proposal would deliver an NBN that uses fibre to the premises, fibre to the curb, and 5G fixed wireless to bring Australia in line with the capabilities of other countries.
• Component 2: Conduct a transparent review of NBN pricing structures so retailers provide consumers with the best possible connection options, and ensure affordable base-rate broadband packages are available to low-income households.

The proposal would commence on 1 July 2019.
