Although telecommunications is primarily a Commonwealth Government responsibility, the Tasmanian Government spends $500 - $600 million on telecommunications annually.
The State Government has a whole-of-Government approach to telecommunications purchasing in which the Department of Premier and Cabinet, through TMD (Telecommunications Management Division), sources and in some cases provides, telecommunications services for use by all Government agencies.
The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) is responsible for the regulation of broadcasting, radiocommunications, telecommunications and online content Australia-wide.
