The April 2024 Triple Zero Coordination Committee meeting minutes document the re-formation of this inter-agency committee, chaired by the Department of Infrastructure's Acting Deputy Secretary. The committee's purpose is to establish national policy direction for the Triple Zero emergency call service, which the Department manages through a Telstra contract. Key discussion centered on a proposed SMS messaging capability for Triple Zero, with committee members seeking updates on an original proposal that had been delayed. The Department advised the proposal would need refreshing given elapsed time and competing priorities, including responses to an Optus outage report, with further consideration deferred pending other work. An action item assigned to the Department required providing an updated assessment of risks and benefits associated with new Triple Zero initiatives, including SMS messaging capability, at the next meeting.
