The VHA made the 5G comments when speaking to the telco's six month results to 30 June 2018.
Those results, meanwhile, are improving, despite the carrier recording a $92.3million loss for the half year.
Total revenue for the reporting period increased 7.1 percent year-on-year to $1.76 billion and the carrier reported a five percent year-on-year increase in its customer base up 294,000 to 5.98 million customers.
The loss was attributed in part to depreciation and amortisation costs flowing from its 2017 spectrum licence purchases and accounting changes.
