We are currently undertaking a range of initiatives to reduce risk, eliminate unnecessary duplication and improve whole-of-government telecommunications services in NSW. These include:
- Developing a 10 year radio and related communications strategy to deliver value to the NSW Government
- A state-wide audit of all infrastructure that supports mobile radio has been undertaken to create a baseline from which a holistic, consolidated approach can be developed
- Negotiating with the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) to ensure a coordinated and strategic approach to radio spectrum allocation for the NSW public sector as part of the national spectrum reforms
- Examining the cost and benefits of NSW developing a dedicated data capability for Public Safety Mobile Broadband (PSMB) and securing a supportive allocation of spectrum
