> The fibre network is owned 50% by central government and 50% by private or local government owned corporations Does the government actually have an ownership

• teruakohatu 4y ago
  There are many fibre companies, each with a monopoly in a geographic area. For the largest Chorus the government own non-voting shares and gave them a loan, and for the others I believe the government had a 50% stake originally. That all might have changes over the years.

    The stake was also to incentivise the local fibre companies to pay back their govt loans (stake would be reduced)
