The answer to the honourable senator's question is as follows:

(1) The ACMA has two ongoing programs:

(2) (a) See the Broadband Communications and the Digital Economy Portfolio Budget Statements (PBS) 2011-12 page102-108.

(b) See the Broadband Communications and the Digital Economy PBS 2011-12 page102-108.

(c) Ongoing.

(d) See the Broadband Communications and the Digital Economy PBS 2011-12 page102-108.

(e) The staffing level of 625 employees (BCDE PBS 2011-12 page 102), are engaged across both the programs. The ACMA is unable to quantify the staff numbers per program, as they perform duties across both the programs and can be located anywhere within Australia.

(3) The ACMA does not have any cross-portfolio programs.
