C564:2025 Mobile Phone Base Station Deployment
Explanatory Statement (pdf 112kb)
The Mobile Phone Base Station Deployment Code is designed to:
- provide greater transparency to local community and councils when a Carrier is planning, selecting sites for, installing and operating mobile phone radiocommunications infrastructure; and
- allow the community and councils to have greater participation in the decision-making process of Carriers when deploying mobile phone base stations.
The revised Code aligns the provision of information to Council’s and Interested and Affected Parties with changes in technology to better reflect how Council’s and members of the community access and consume information in today’s contemporary communications environment.
Further information on the deployment of mobile phone towers and links to industry and regulatory information can be found here.
