On 30 October 2018, the ACCC received three new access undertakings in relation to the commencement of digital radio services in Canberra, Darwin and Hobart. The three undertakings lodged by the joint venture companies (JVCs) in each licence area (i.e. Canberra, Darwin and Hobart) are identical and provided below.

On 19 November 2018, the ACCC released this consultation and position paper to seek shareholders’ views on the degree to which the undertakings meet the legislative requirements, and pursuant to those, the decision-making criteria developed by the ACCC. These views will be used to inform the ACCC’s decision on whether to accept or reject the undertakings.

Submissions are due by 17 December 2018.
