Have your say on the essential communications resilience program

The Australian Government is committed to improving the resilience of communications services across regional, rural and remote Australia.

The consultation process is now open on the draft guidelines for Round 2 of the $15 million Mobile Network Hardening Program (MHNP).

The program aims to reduce the risks of service outages and improve restoration times during natural disasters in impacted communities by funding projects like portable generators, power back-up upgrades and physical tower hardening.
