AGRI

THE Southern Downs and Tenterfield have been left stranded as the National Broadband Network is forced to reconsider the service’s rollout. According to the NBN’s own maps, the City of Warwick is an island surrounded by broadband-capable services. Meanwhile the release of any plans for NBN installation in Stanthorpe or Tenterfield is on hold until at least 2 December, when the company will announce the results of a review of the NBN. The incoming Abbott government has told NBN Co to complete a 60-day strategic review of the rollout.

The NBN has been able to complete the installation of two operating facilities in and around Warwick which cover close to 600 premises, one facility in Sladevale and one in Rosenthal Heights. These are wireless systems. The city area of Warwick was due to get a faster optic fibre link to the NBN but this installation will now have to wait upon the government’s Interim Statement of Expectations which instructed the NBN to review and audit the rollout. Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull has promised to deliver the NBN “sooner, more affordably for consumers and at less cost to taxpayers”. Continued on page 2 IT’S ALL ABOUT SAVING WATER
