Environmental Challenges
- The Regional Broadband Scheme Levy (RBSL) is not fit for purpose due to complexity, flawed methodology, inequitable outcomes, and redundancy in the face of competing technologies.
Mitigation Strategies
- Proposes a consolidated Universal Telecommunications Service (UTS) funding regime based on the Telecommunications Industry Levy (TIL), expanding the UTS to include broadband and data connectivity, and leveraging the Statutory Infrastructure Provider (SIP) regime to ensure sustainability and contestability.
