From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telstra

Government (via the Future Fund) only owns 10.9% of Telstra - according to
Wikipedia.


Privatisation

Telstra was privatised in three different stages, informally known as "T1"
($3.30), "T2" ($7.40) and "T3" ($3.60) in 1997, 1999 and 2006 respectively.
[5] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telstra#cite_note-autogenerated1-5>[6]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telstra#cite_note-6>
 In *T1*, the government sold one third of its shares in Telstra for A$14
billion and publicly listed the company on the Australian Stock
Exchange.[5]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telstra#cite_note-autogenerated1-5>
In
1999, a further 16% of Telstra shares were sold to the public, leaving the
Australian government with 51% ownership. In 2006, *T3* was announced by
the government and was the largest of the three public releases, reducing
the Government's ownership of Telstra to
17%.[7]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telstra#cite_note-7> The
17% remainder of Telstra was placed in Australia's Future
Fund<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Future_Fund>,
which will provide superannuation<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superannuation>
 and pensions <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pension> for Australia's public
servants <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_servants>.[8]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telstra#cite_note-8>
In
2009, the Future Fund sold off another $2.4B worth of shares reducing the
government's stake in Telstra to
10.9%.[9]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telstra#cite_note-9>
