Networking Australia's Future - Chairman's Submission Letter to Minister
December 1994
The Hon. Michael Lee MP
Minister for Communications and the Arts
Parliament House
CANBERRA ACT 2600
Dear Minister
On behalf of the Broadband Services Expert Group, I have pleasure in submitting to you the Group's final report, prepared in response to the Government's request of December 1993.
This report follows on from our interim report published in July 1994 to recommend a strategy to enable the community, industry and government to position themselves to realise the potential of new networked communications services. The Group is convinced that Australia has the talents and resources to be a major player in the future communications society if it acts to take advantage of the present opportunities.
The Group was encouraged by the positive contributions a great variety of Australians made to its work and to the development of a framework for new communications services. It urges the Government to work with all Australians to begin planning now for our communications future.
Yours sincerely
BRIAN JOHNS
Chairman
