“The committee has heard a range of ideas and recommendations about how to boost healthy competition and productivity throughout this inquiry. The ACCC, NCC, Treasury and the Productivity Commission are key players in this area, so the committee will benefit from hearing their perspectives and testing ideas with them.”
