NBN joint venture collapse a 'vote of no confidence' - ABC News
The Federal Opposition says the collapse of a proposed joint venture to build the National Broadband Network in Tasmania shows the overall project is a shambles.
The Government planned to build the network with Tasmanian electricity company Aurora Energy.
But a spokeswoman for Communications Minister Stephen Conroy says both parties have agreed the Government will use Aurora as a contractor instead.
I guess one just has to wonder why Aurora Energy has pulled out of the business deal that has been so widely touted as the next best thing for Australia?
Senator Conroy?
