"The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) is pushing for a $40 million penalty to be handed down to Telstra Corporation Ltd for alleged breaches of the company's competitive obligations under federal law. . ." See full story at Business Spectator

The action arises  as a result of Telstra admitting to denying competitors access at seven exchanges, even though there was space to accommodate them.

We'd be interested on your views and feedback on this issue and the topic of "competitor regulation" in general.
