Telstra has submitted a new model to the ACCC for competitor access to Band 2 Exchanges. The new model called the "Efficient Access" pricing method gives the same result as the previous model - $30 per month.

The Labor Party is now in Government in Australia and Telstra has upped the rhetoric in its campaign to roll the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and to force the Government to remove regulations preventing Telstra from setting the price for competitors to access infrastructure. Is the Labor Party about to cave in to Telstra?
