Require internet providers to provide equal Internet Access for All Communities
We urge the government to require internet service providers to deliver reliable, high-speed internet to all citizens, regardless of where they live. We think providers have prioritised expansion and upgrades in urban centres while neglecting rural, remote, and underserved areas.

Background
We think access to fast and stable internet is no longer a luxury—it is a basic necessity for education, employment, healthcare, and civic participation. Without it, we think entire communities may be left behind.
We urge policymakers to implement regulations and incentives that ensure internet infrastructure is expanded equitably, so no one is excluded based on geography. We think it is time to bridge the digital divide and guarantee that every citizen has the opportunity to connect and thrive in the digital age
