Communities in Gilmore will have access to better broadband connectivity during natural disasters, with the rollout of one satellite dish by NBN Co on emergency buildings around Australia, such as Rural Fire Service depots and evacuation centres. Senator for NSW Jim Molan recently welcomed the installation of a satellite dish at 92 Albatross Road in Nowra. He said that this was a crucial investment from the Government to help people in disaster-affected areas stay connected with family and essential services. "These satellite services will also act as a critical piece of infrastructure for emergency service workers in Gilmore, by providing them with connectivity to help manage their disaster response and recovery effort," Senator Molan said. Minister for Communications, Urban Infrastructure, Cities and the Arts, the Hon Paul Fletcher MP, welcomed the latest satellite dish installations from NBN Co, ahead of the next bushfire season. Minister Fletcher said the dishes would help people in disaster-affected locations stay in contact before, during and after a bushfire or other disaster. The satellite dishes are part of the Morrison Government's $37.1m Securing Telecommunications Against Natural Disasters package to improve the resilience of communications networks. More information on the package can be found on the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Communications' website.
