Most of the discussion about Australia's National Broadband Network (NBN) has been about the costs, the benefits and the implementation of "super-fast broadband". This article looks at another important use that will be made of the optical fibre to the user provided by the NBN - the provision of telephony service as a continuation of the current standard telephone service available across Australia. The article looks at the extensive range of current policies that will have to be considered and quite possibly modified with the implementation of the NBN. Work has begun on only a few, but many more policy areas will have to be resolved to enable a smooth transition to the new network and identify the ubiquitous services that the NBN will provide.
