<div>Colleagues all - Comms Alliance is preparing a letter to be sent to George Brandis and Malcolm Turnbull, seeking certainty on the arrangements and amount the Government will contribute to the communications industry to implement the new data retention requirements - to be jointly signed by CEOs of carriers and carriage service providers.<br> So far the CEOs of most of the largest service providers have agreed to sign.<br><br> I asked John - and he agreed - to open this up to ISPs that are not members of Comms Alliance.<br><br> If you are the CEO of an ISP/carrier/CSP please email me and I will send you the draft letter and list of CEOs currently agreed to sign, and you can then decide if you are happy with the wording and would like to add your name to the list - or not, no obligation. (I'd post it, but there are a lot of non-ISP people on the list, and while the letter is draft it should be kept within the industry until its finalised).<br><br> If your CEO is not on this list, please ask them to email me or call me on 0414 366 605.<br><br> They'd like to finalise it by this afternoon, so please respond to me quickly so I can get you the draft.<br><br> cheers,<br> Paul..<br><br><br> On 15/03/2015 10:04 AM, John Stanton wrote:</div>
