Land Mobile Radio Policy and Planning:
Perhaps the most controversial issue in Australian radio spectrum planning today concerns the need to r-eplan for large
government mobile radio networks. The public Policy, economics, inter-agency dynamics and technical problems are potentially paralysing but have been tackled in Europe and America with very different outcomes.
This article by Viktor Mayer-Schöenberger Associate Professor of Public Policy, The John F. Kennedy School of
Government, Harvard University. Provides an excellent public policy analysis of the issues.
