  • Cable – 16.2% • Satellite – 0.7% • Wireless – 3% • Other – 0.03%
    Fixed Services Review Australian Competition and Consumer Commission’s second position paper Submission by Internode Internode appreciates the opportunity to comment on the Commission’s framework for reviewing existing service declarations and the relevant principles in applying forward-looking regulation of fixed line services. Internode agrees with the principle that ex ante regulation should focus on enduring bottlenecks in fixed line networks as the lessening of regulation in such areas would quickly remove the benefits that end-users in downstream markets are experiencing as a result of competition. Even though there has been growth in facilities-based and quasi facilities-based competition in fixed services, the relative level of competition remains insufficient to argue that that the competitive stranglehold of bottlenecks have been removed or even particularly diminished. In such market circumstances, it remains an imperative for the Commission to ensure that a robust regulatory environment exists to encourage investment via strong competition. Internode submits that the Commission should be very cautious if it is at all inclined to withdraw ex ante regulation and to not redeclare any currently declared fixed services. The Commission’s stated principle, that where it is economically efficient, facilities-based competition is more likely to promote the long-term interests of the end-user (LTIE), is sound. The clear problem is that the considerable capital investment required to install a competing fixed network has to date put such a rollout beyond the reach of the industry. Though Optus, TransACT and Neighbourhood Cable operate fixed networks that compete with Telstra, each is geographically limited. It is also reasonable to say that even in the areas where these networks do operate, the current levels of competition would not exist without regulation under Part XIC of the Trade Practices Act.
