Last week President Greg and Vice President Lee spoke about the upcoming consultation by our regulator, the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA).

Greg mentioned that this consultation is "Something that should be of both interest and concern of all Radio Amateurs in Australia". Greg also said the this very important consultation has the potential for major changes to the Amateur Radio Service and its licensing regime.
We as amateurs must carefully consider and weigh up the options that have been proposed by the ACMA.
The board of the Wireless Institute of Australia met last Tuesday to discuss the proposed consultation and the WIA response. At this stage, the board will require more information in order to form an opinion on the proposed changes. The board has decided to meet with experts within our Amateur Community and for them to write a discussion paper which will be put out to members for comment, probably in the form of a poll like that recently conducted by the WIA.
That panel will meet next week to commence the process.
