The First Nations Telecommunications Working Group was established by the Advisory Group in 2025 to support industry-wide collaboration on the recommendations in the Roadmap relating to industry, including access, skills, and customer service.
The Working Group builds on the workshops the Advisory Group has held with industry to date, and its membership includes senior representatives from the telecommunications sector and regulators (the ACMA and ACCC). The Working Group is co chaired by Ms Lauren Ganley (Telstra) and Mr Sam Dimarco (NBN Co). Ms Ganley and Mr Dimarco are both members of the Digital Inclusion Expert Panel.
