The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has published its final decision on fixed-line pricing, slashing the prices that Telstra can charge its wholesale customers for use of its legacy copper network during the transition to the National Broadband Network by 9.4 percent.

The competition watchdog then amended this to 9.4 percent in its final decision on Friday morning.
