Policy Objectives: Do you agree with the stated policy objective in section 3.1? If not, how should it be modified? How can we measure the success of the IPW spectrum policy framework? How would you like to see the IPW spectrum policy framework used in the future? Are there any other spectrum access measures we should consider to further support Indigenous connectivity? Answer 1: 2. Eligibility Criteria: What eligibility criteria should we consider for IPW applicants? Does the existing applicant-based option (Option 1), as defined in section 3.2, resonate with you? If so, which parts do you think are the most valuable to use to create the final eligibility criteria? Does the community support-based option (Option 2), as defined in section 3.2 resonate with you? If so, do you think it should be combined with Option 1 or should it stand on its own? Does the project-based option (Option 3), as described in section 3.2, resonate with you? If so, which parts do you think are the most valuable to use to create the final eligibility criteria? Are there other approaches that may be better suited to create the final eligibility criteria? Answer 2: 3. Time-limited Window: The proposed time-limited window is 12 months (section 3.3). Do you feel this is sufficient time to submit a licence application? If not, how much time would be sufficient? Answer 3: 4. Conditions of Licence: How can the conditions of licence described in section 3.4 be designed for future spectrum access initiatives to support Indigenous-led connectivity solutions? Answer 4: 5. Engagement: Should we consider other platforms to engage with Indigenous partners to advance economic reconciliation? Answer 5: 6.
