ACMA Review draft report

On 12 June 2015, the then Minister for Communications, the Hon Malcolm Turnbull MP, announced a review of the ACMA.

The purpose of the review is to examine the objectives, function, structure, governance and resource base of the ACMA to ensure it remains fit-for-purpose for both the contemporary and future communications regulatory environment.

We are leading the Review and released an issues paper in July 2015, which invited responses from interested parties. This input, further consultation with industry stakeholders and engaging with the Reference Group, informed the development of this draft report which articulates our findings and puts forward a number of draft reform proposals to modernise the ACMA's objectives, functions and governance arrangements and establish clear performance expectations.

We are particularly interested in your views on our assessment of the operating environment, and what implications this has for a future regulator and regulatory regime.
