SenateTuesday 28 October 2025

Telecommunications Legislation Amendment (Triple Zero Custodian and Emergency Calling Powers) Bill 2025

Senator GREEN (Queensland—Assistant Minister for Tourism, Assistant Minister for Pacific Island Affairs and Assistant Minister for Northern Australia) (12:26): I can seek to ensure that there is as much information as possible about that timeframe available to you. What I would say is that it is a priority for the government, and we will ensure that those registers are set up as soon as possible.

Of course, it will be done through standards. It will be done through the Telecommunications (Customer Communications for Outages) Industry Standard. To give you that comfort, we will ensure that this will be done by the end of the year.
