I know firsthand how dangerous it can be to be stranded without mobile coverage. In 2013, I was stuck on a remote road in Arnhem Land for nearly two days. I’ll never forget how quickly things can go wrong, and the added terror when you realise you can't call for help. That’s why I’m so proud that the Albanese Government is introducing the Universal Outdoor Mobile Obligation (UOMO), a world-first reform to make sure Australians can always call for help when they’re in danger. ✅ 5 million km² of new outdoor coverage ✅ 37,000 km of regional roads covered ✅ Triple Zero will always get through, if you can see the sky, you can make an emergency call ✅ Better connectivity during disasters and power outages We’ve heard from locals in places like Ansons Bay about the dangers of mobile black spots. This reform means that if you’re lost in the bush, stuck on a remote road, or facing a medical emergency far from help, you’ll be able to reach emergency services when it matters most. Legislation starts in 2025, with full rollout by 2027, because no one should be left without a lifeline in an emergency. Image: Google Maps Ansons Bay Road

To follow on from the good news about Interest rate cuts due to the good work in lowering inflation from the high levels we inherited:

A wonderful conversation with Mowbray Golf Club.
It is growing and looking to secure its own water supply.
The great thing is the proposed dam expansion would act as a sediment catchment stopping a lot of urban runoff into the #Tamar river.
