SUBJECTS: Extraordinary AWU police raids
STEPHEN JONES, SHADOW MINISTER FOR REGIONAL COMMUNICATIONS, SHADOW MINISTER FOR REGIONAL SERVICES, TERRITORIES AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT: Well you know it’s a sitting week in Canberra when the Government introduces legislation to have a go at the union movement. You know it’s a sitting week in Canberra when they have one of their goons standing up in here, using Parliamentary Privilege to slander and defame a member of the public. But yesterday, they took it to an all-time low. We now know that there is no limit to which the Government won’t go to use the power of the state to attack and go after their political opponents for political reasons.

STEPHEN JONES, SHADOW MINISTER FOR REGIONAL COMMUNICATIONS, SHADOW MINISTER FOR REGIONAL SERVICES, TERRITORIES AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT: Good morning. What Australians want from Malcolm Turnbull today, more than anything, is a bit of humility. An apology for why he has got their NBN services so wrong. What they don’t need is another lecture from the Prime Minister about why every decision he has taken is right. What they want is an apology for why their phone services aren’t working. Why their internet services aren’t working.

SUBJECTS: NBN Rollout in Regional Australia
JOURNALIST: There’s been much talk about the NBN. This is one of Australia’s biggest infrastructure projects in history and we know there was a difference in policy at the last election about whether it should be fibre-to-the-home or fibre-to-the-node and how much this is going to cost. Well it’s in the tens of billions of dollars and we have seen reports, anecdotally at least, of problems up and down the east coast and right across Australia.

ABC RADIO INTERVIEW: NBN FRUSTRATIONS
LEON COMPTON, JOURNALIST: The internet and to the NBN more generally has been a much discussed topic on this program and around Tasmania over the last decade or so. People are incredibly frustrated by the promises of the NBN and then the service that was ultimately delivered. It turns out that many internet service providers are just flat out misleading the community about the sorts of services that they’re promising to deliver and then the reality of what you pay for when it gets there. They’re promising speeds that you might get at 3am on a Tuesday morning but at no other time. What should we do about it? To the NBN in Tasmania more generally, Stephen Jones is the Labor Member for Whitlam and a Shadow Minister responsible for the National Broadband Network and Stephen Jones is in Tasmania today having a look around for his party. Stephen Jones good morning to you.
