Government Policy Project Notice
NBN Co's Special Access Undertaking (SAU) with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) is a key part of the regulatory framework governing the terms on which retail service providers access wholesale services supplied by NBN Co over the NBN.
On 17 October 2023, the ACCC gave notice that it had accepted a proposal from NBN Co to vary the SAU. The varied SAU established a new mechanism known as a Government Policy Project Notice (Project Notice).
The below Explanatory Note describes the process and approach that would be taken by the Minister for Communications to issuing, and consulting on, a Project Notice for the purposes of the SAU.
