Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this does: This is a formal decision by the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) setting the dollar amount it spent on telecommunications regulation during the 2004-05 financial year.

Who it affects: Telecommunications companies (carriers) that hold licences to operate networks. The figure determined here ($7,945,653) represents the slice of the ACCC's total budget used to perform telecom-specific regulatory functions.

Why it matters: Under the Telecommunications (Carrier Licence Charges) Act, carriers must pay annual licence fees to the government. This determination provides a key number used to calculate those fees—essentially telling carriers: "This is how much it cost us to regulate your industry this year, and it contributes to what you owe." It is a routine administrative setting of costs for fee calculation purposes.
