(2) Where an NBN CSP proposes to supply the consumer with an interim service, it must advise the consumer: (a) that the NBN CSP is required to supply a legacy service to their premises under subsection 11(1); (b) that they can consent to the supply of an interim service under paragraph 11(2)(c) as a substitute for the supply of a legacy service; (c) of the applicable timeframes for the proposed supply of the interim service set out in section 18; and (d) of the details of the key features and limitations, fees and charging arrangements that will apply to the provider’s proposed supply of the interim service to the consumer, as soon as possible after becoming aware of a matter in paragraph 11(1)(a), (b) or (c), and before obtaining the consumer’s consent to the supply of that service. (3) For subsection (2), the amount payable by a consumer to an NBN CSP for the supply of an interim service must not exceed the amount that would have applied for supply of the NBN service for the same period had it been operational.
