Greens say Labor must slash NBN chief’s salary in exchange for support on anti-privatisation bill Exclusive: Greens call for NBN CEO salary to be cut by estimated $2.5m alongside ‘cost-of-living’ relief for users.

The Greens say Labor must drastically cut the pay of the national broadband network’s chief executive in exchange for their support on a bill to block any future privatisation of the publicly owned network.

The party’s amendments to Labor’s bill include a salary cap for senior executives, placing a legal obligation on NBN services to remain “affordable and accessible” to consumers, and providing cost-of-living relief for those who can’t afford essential communication services.
