It's an interesting read. The 400 odd pages make for light reading.
Interesting to note that the new Resilience NSW may end up with new talkgroups too. Wait and see i guess.

I had a brief read through it on Tuesday . . . . seen nothing on Communications or Crew Resourcing Issues . . . and being in both services I was hearing many from both sides, only seen FRNSW Mentioned 3 or 4 Times in the whole report which I thought was strange.
