Senator CONROY (Victoria—Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Deputy Leader of the Government in the Senate and Minister Assisting the Prime Minister on Digital Productivity) (14:42): I told the Senate yesterday of the plans of Telefonica to provide fibre to the home to 1.3 million premises in Madrid. In making the announcement, this is what the Telefonica executives had to say: Compared to other solutions combined with hybrid fiber coaxial cable, optical fiber deployment to the home offers the best performance, not just download speeds, but upload to the network, facilitating and making more flexible management of all services, applications and content that is in the cloud. Telefonica, just like Telecom France, know that fibre to the home provides the best solution to our future broadband needs. Those opposite should stop listening to Mr Turnbull but start listening to the companies he invests in.
