7. Please provide details as to how other telecommunications providers will be facilitated and
   encouraged to co-locate other wireless antennas on the proposed monopole.

Response

NBN Co has established and put in place a number of framework agreements with third party as well
as mobile network operators which outlines the process and procedures in relation to co-location on
NBN Co’s network infrastructure sites. These agreements address operational, commercial and
technical requirements for all incoming site share requests.

8. A Written undertaking that the facility will be made available for the mounting of other
   communication providers’ antennas and that no restrictive provisions form part of any
   contract, agreements or other documentation associated with the development.

Response

It is a requirement under the Telecommunications Act that all telecommunication providers make their
facilities available for the purposes of collocation. In addition to this, the framework agreement allows
telecommunication provider’s to co-locate their equipment on NBN Co’s facilities and NBN Co is happy
to work with the other mobile carriers to ensure where possible the facilities can be readily accessed
to improve mobile coverage.

NBN Co considers the information above adequately addresses each matter within the information
request.

Should you have any questions regarding any of these matters, please do not hesitate to contact
Claire Harris on 3173 8738 or alternatively by e-mail [email protected] if you require
further information.


Yours Sincerely,




James Irwin
Project Leader
