ACCC draft access decision

On 20 January 2012 the ACCC published a summary of the DTCS service providers' pricing data used to develop the price terms in the draft DTCS final access determination.

The summary dataset is a random, anonymous, selection of 10% of the observations relating to exempt services.

Observations relating to declared services have not been used to develop the price terms in the draft DTCS final access determination. The ACCC releases the summary dataset in accordance with section 155AAA(17) of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 to provide further transparency about the methodology used to develop the price terms in the draft DTCS final access determination.
