A petition of certain residents of the Hann River area and travellers using the Peninsula Developmental Road in Cape York draws to the attention of the House that telephone services in this remote region are negligible and fall well short of Telstra's community service obligation.

Your petitioners therefore pray that the House act to ensure that Telstra be directed to provide a 24-hour-a-day public phone service at the Hann River and that it be positioned on public land adjacent to the local roadhouse.

by Mr Entsch(from 447 citizens)
