ACCC demands better broadband speed info

Better information on broadband speed should be provided to consumers to improve competition and satisfaction, according to Australia's competition watchdog.

Australia's competition regulator is calling for suggestions on how to improve broadband speed information for consumers, in a bid to improve competition and consumer satisfaction.

The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission is concerned about the current lack of clear information about broadband performance in advertising and other material available to consumers.

The regulator on Tuesday released a discussion paper and has called for submissions on steps that could be taken by itself, industry players and others to make improvements.
