2021 Regional Telecommunications Independent Review receives more than 650 submissions
Excerpt from the story;
Peak representative bodies such as Adelaide Hills Council, South Australia, AgForce Queensland Farmers Limited and Yarramalong Communications Action Group also entered submissions.
In it's submission, the Yarramalong Communications Action Group outlined a number of key concerns sparked by limited access to high-speed telecommunications services including challenges facing those doing online education, communication issues during disasters and deteriorating mobile coverage.
"After hearing stories from other regions during this review in a similar predicament, it seems our region is not unique in suffering poor communications," the group's submission read.
"We understand that about eight per cent of Australia is suffering the same fate, having had fixed-line services for decades only to have them replaced by a poorer substitute."
