‘Disgusted’: Littleproud lashes telcos for failure to communicate – Sydney Morning Herald
The Emergency Services Minister says telcos have failed to provide information on critical infrastructure to help fireys make “life and death decisions”.
These are strategic decisions emergency service personnel have to make, to make sure communications stay alive between not only their personnel but the community.
Telstra, along with Optus, NBN and Vodafone owe it to our emergency services workers as well as to the broader community whose lives they are endangering to provide this critical data, he told ABC radio.
Mr Littleproud rejected telcos concerns that sharing information about the capabilities of certain assets could damage their businesses.
