Call centre operator Teletech has closed its office in Pennant Hills, Sydney, according to Federal Member for Berowra Philip Ruddock, resulting in 173 staff losing their jobs.
Was 2007 a good year for Telstra? Possibly. Was it a good year for Telstra's lawyers? Definitely.
Communications Minister Helen Coonan will no longer decide when Telstra can switch off its CDMA network -- that responsibility now falls on Attorney-General Philip Ruddock.
The federal government will spend AU$12.4 million over the next two years to tackle intellectual property crime.
More than AU$12 million has been allocated to fight high tech crimes and expand the Australian Government Computer Emergency Readiness Team. In addition, a "cyber-exercise program" is in the works to help the country cope with "cyber-terrorism attacks".
It looks like AusCERT and GovCERT have worked out their issues and are no longer stepping on each others' toes.
The federal Attorney General, Philip Ruddock, has introduced amendments to federal parliament that would ease police access to stored voice-mails, e-mails and text messages.
