Jan raises a good point, re rental premises.

AFAIK, at the moment, the tenant is responsible for telecoms. If they 
want a land line, they pay for it. Always (?) there is a land line so it 
is just a question of terminating the line in the street and at the 
exchange and off you go. Or don't bother and use mobiles.

Who is responsible for the expense of connecting the premises now? The 
owner or the tenant? The body corporate or individual owners? If it is 
the owner of a rental property, then is it a tax deductible expense? Is 
it an expense or it to to be capitalised? Have the effects on tax 
collection been factored in?

Seems to be a bit of a fact free area - or have I missed something?
