It's great to support the launch of Round 2 of the Coalition Government's mobile Black Spot Programme, an important step in the Governments mission to improve telecommunication services and infrastructure throughout regional, rural and remote Austrralia. The competitive selection process, which allows telecomminications companies to bid for their share of $60 million to instal new coverage, or to upgrade existing mobile coverage is now underway. The Government will select the successful locations in accordance with the ranking process set out in the programme guidelines which are available for download at: www.communications.gov.au/mobile_coverage
