Recommendations
Recommendation 1
Notwithstanding that the committee, for reasons detailed in its
Fourth Interim Report, recommended that the government abandon its NBN proposal
in its current form, the committee acknowledges that the government is proceeding
with its NBN proposal and accordingly recommends:
2.90
That the government provide the public with:
- the calculations and underlying workings that were used by the
Lead Advisor to generate its total cost estimates for building the NBN; and
- a comprehensive statement of what are or will be the alleged
and predicted benefits of the government's NBN project.
2.91 That the government
commission a rigorous cost-benefit analysis of its NBN project, or at least in
the first instance, accept Professor Henry Ergas' generous offer to conduct a
cost-benefit analysis free of charge.
