Division 5 of Part XIC of the Trade Practices Act enables access providers to voluntarily lodge written access undertakings with the ACCC specifying the terms and conditions upon which they agree to supply a specified service.
Section 152ATA of the Trade Practices Act (1974) known as the Competition and Consumer Act (2010) from 1 January 2011, enables an access provider (or a potential access provider) to apply for and receive an exemption from the standard access obligations before an investment in a telecommunications service is made or that service becomes an active declared service.
