Critical Communications Enhancement Program

The NSW Government is investing $1.4 billion to expand and enhance the Public Safety Network (PSN). This CCEP will:

• provide a single network for emergency services to communicate with each other
• coordinate responses to critical incidents and disasters.

A single shared network is important

Risks of extreme weather events such as bushfires and floods are increasing. Reliable and resilient critical communications are vital to protecting communities. 

A single shared network will:

• increase the sharing of information during emergencies such as floods and fires
• improve service levels for customers
• improve responses to communities affected by disasters and critical incidents
• allow for connection to networks in other states
• allow for new communication technologies.
