The Optus Triple 0 fall out continues. The communications minister met with Optus owners Singtel about the Triple 0 failure two weeks ago, which had devastating impacts for people calling for help and finding their calls unable to go through.

Wells said the group have promised to restore trust in the system:

I also asked Optus to appoint external accountability to make sure that Australians can take advice not just from Optus themselves but from an independent and external party that the systems in place in Optus will serve Australians when they need the most.
