Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This determination requires telecommunications carriers (companies operating phone and internet networks) to repay the Australian Government for part of Australia's membership fees to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) — the United Nations agency that sets global standards for radio, phone and internet services.

What it does:

Sets a specific dollar amount ($1,786,699) that the telecom industry must collectively pay back to the Commonwealth
Covers Australia's contribution to the ITU budget for the 2004 calendar year
Made under the Telecommunications (Carrier Licence Charges) Act 1997, which allows the government to recover these international costs from the industry that benefits from the ITU's coordination work

Who it affects: Telecommunications carriers licensed in Australia, who ultimately pass these costs through to consumers as part of regulatory charges.
