  • NBN Co Acquires AUSTAR Spectrum for Rural and Regional Network
    NBN Co acquires AUSTAR spectrum for rural and regional network 17 February, 2011 AUSTAR and NBN Co today announced they have entered into an agreement which sees NBN Co acquire AUSTAR’s 2.3 GHz and 3.4 GHz spectrum holdings, enabling NBN Co to roll out a high-speed fixed-wireless service to rural and regional areas. NBN Co is developing a wholesale high-speed broadband network which will be available to retail service providers on non-discriminatory terms, allowing RSPs to offer a range of plans and packages to consumers and businesses. The first NBN Co fixed-wireless commercial services are scheduled for delivery in mid 2012. NBN Co has previously outlined plans to deliver next-generation wireless and satellite services to seven per cent of premises outside its fibre footprint. Under the deal, NBN Co will acquire AUSTAR’s 2.3 GHz and 3.4 GHz spectrum licences for $120 million. The $120 million payment comprises $58 million for the subsidiary that holds the spectrum licences, with a further $62 million for the assignment of this subsidiary’s debt. AUSTAR Chief Executive Officer Mr John Porter said: “This is a great result for NBN Co, AUSTAR and most importantly, regional Australians. There is no doubt that NBN Co will build broadband services in regional Australia very efficiently with consumers outside metropolitan markets finally gaining access to world-class broadband services.” Mr Porter noted that the NBN Co deal differed from AUSTAR’s 2008 deal with Optus and OPEL, which included a combination of cash and various wholesale arrangements.

  • Hi Everyone, Over the Past Week, I Presented to AUSTAR and XYZ
    Hi everyone, Over the past week, I presented to AUSTAR and XYZ sharing our vision to provide a better entertainment experience for each Australian every day. I also outlined our six priorities we went through at our last staff address. I urge all of you to read this email in full. I spoke about bringing our three businesses together - highlighting what each bring to the new FOXTEL, communicated decisions made about the integration, shared detail about what ownership day will look like for our two Call Centres and for XYZnetworks. I also told AUSTAR and XYZ we are designing our structure for the new combined business, as you know from a previous email. This means there will be some redundancies across all three businesses. We are currently only recruiting business critical roles and will aim to reduce redundancies by redeploying people into any vacant roles - where possible - post ownership. We aim for everyone to know their future in the new FOXTEL by mid July and will manage this through two stages. 1. Pre-ownership: our Executive team and their direct reports will be appointed, meaning we are speaking to some people about in their future in the new FOXTEL now and in the coming weeks. 2. Post-ownership: to structure ourselves below the Executive and leadership group, we will speak directly to any staff members from the three businesses affected by structural changes in the weeks immediately after we become one business. I am keen you are across the information I shared and below each of our priorities are outlined with how we are already delivering on them, along with the details I shared with AUSTAR and XYZ on how the new FOXTEL supports each.
