WAAS in Australia

With the next federal election in the foreseeable timeframe, is it time for industry and all other interested groups to start to very actively lobby for an Australian program to install ground stations to utilise Japanese MSAS/MTSAT satellites?
This could presumably partly utilise the ADS-B infrastructure and thus it would be cheaper than a de-novo system.
Surely now is the time for interested parties to join together, get the media involved, and lobby the politicians for support in the lead up to the election (when politicians and parties are more amenable to lobbying).
