Australia's House of Representatives approved key legislation Monday that enables the government to roll out a 36 billion Australian dollar ($35 billion) fiber optic high-speed national broadband network.

Prime Minister Julia Gillard, whose center-left Labor Party does not hold a majority in either of the two parliamentary chambers, had to negotiate with lawmakers from the minor Greens party and independents to get the bill approved.
