Who are “NX Test Laboratories”?

Have they been mis-spelt (on two occasions) in Hansard?

If not, how come there’s apparently nothing about “NX Test Laboratories” on the web?

One would have thought a bona fide test lab /research institute would have saome web presence…

The Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Senator Conroy

That should be the minister for Dial-Up internet speeds, Controlling, monitoring and limiting Communication, and Sabotaging the Digital Economy.

That would be more accurate in my opinion, MORON.
