In September 2008, the ACMA established a Working Group for the Review of the 400 MHz band under the guidance of the Radiocommunications Consultative Committee to:
- assist as appropriate with the review of the 400 MHz band;
- provide advice on issues related to the ACMA’s ongoing review; and
- operate as a forum for in-depth consultation, as required, with major industry stakeholders on future arrangements for the frequency band 403–520 MHz (the 400 MHz band).
All affected stakeholders are invited to participate in the Working Group via there relevant representative. The Working Group is chaired by Andrew Stewart from ACMA. The membership of the Working Group is shown in the following table:
