In response to another question, the department said NBN was unable to proceed with 120 fixed wireless sites. It added that it also decided to move premises on 26 fixed wireless sites onto its fixed line technologies.

"The changes mean that around 22,000 premises that were planned to be served by fixed wireless or were served by fixed wireless or satellite will instead be served by fixed line, while around 20,000 premises that were planned to be served by fixed wireless will instead be served by satellite," it said.
