List of Distribution Areas & Premises Count for FTTN 1000 Node Trial
Dear NBN Co Limited,
I wish to receive the document outlining each Exchange Service Area, Distribution Area and Number of Premises that will be participating in the FTTN 1000 Node Trial. This document would have been used as the basis for establishing the number of nodes in NBN's press release located here - http://nbnco.com.au/content/dam/nbnco2/d... and the published statement from the Federal Minister of Communications as reaching 206,000 premises.
Yours faithfully,
David Cooper

Dear Ms Deerness,
Thank you for your response on the 18th August, 2014 to my FOI request (FOI1415/06.06). This request indicated that I am seeking access to the below
"A document outlining each Exchange Service Area, Distribution Area and Number of Premises that will be participating in the FTTN 1000 Node Trial. This document would have been used as the basis for establishing the number of nodes in NBN's press release located here - http://nbnco.com.au/content/dam/nbnco2/d... and the published statement from the Federal Minister of Communications as reaching 206,000 premises."
I would like to contend the assessment on the FOI charges, in particular, the indicated 15 hours Decision Making Time on potential commercial issues.
The scope of the request has been structured specifically to avoid requesting any documentation that may be considered as impacting on NBNCo's commercial operations. It has taken into consideration
- That the overall scope of deployment of the National Broadband Network per its title, is national, and competition restricted.
- That there has already been an agreement signed between NBNCo and Telstra for this trial that has been publicly announced by NBNCo's CEO Bill Morrow
- That by defining 1,000 nodes across NSW and QLD, covering 200,000 premises, indicates that the scope of work has already been agreed to and initial design completed (Reference Mr Adcock in announcement - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTG4TBxV...)
- The scope of the request does not include details of infrastructure design or financial agreement with Telstra.
- The detailed listing Exchange Service Areas, Distribution Areas and Number of Premises across Australia are already publicly available from the Department of Communications myBroadband website
As the scope of FOI request was very specific already, I would consider that the request for the list of ESA's, DA's and Number of Premises as part of this already signed trial require minimal commercial consideration. As such I request that NBNCo reassess and reduce the Decision Making Time for this request.
Yours Sincerely
David Cooper
