And while the PUC holds its cards very close to its chest - they got called out to do more at a press conference held by the 4 independent senators this afternoon.
Labour Senator Glenfield Dennison expressed his discontent with the PUC's late response to the acquisition of SMART. Moreover why had they not acted prior when discussions were taking place.
Glenfied Dennison, Union Senator
"PUC stop play man, stop play! I think they are playing and I think they missed that this discussion ought to not to have been happening about whether or not BTL will buy SMART and then invite the PUC. The PUC ought to have been at the front of this, they should not ratify a decision for one dominant actor to buy out a less, somebody with less market share they were to lead that conversation after they determined whether or not that is in the best interest of the industry not after."
