A report commissioned by Telecom, TelstraClear and Vodafone rejects the need for an investment of $1.5 billion by the Government in ultra-fast broadband.
Prepared by the business consultants Castalia, the report says existing broadband plans are sufficient.
Castalia executive director Alex Sundakov questions the social benefit of spending $1.5 billion when customers have demonstrated little appetite for the technology.
However, Telecommunications Users Association says the Government should continue with its plans.
The Government is expected to announce its next steps towards the rollout of ultra fast broadband later this week.
