Towards a National Broadband Strategy for Australia, 2020-2030

Critical infrastructure (CI) business continuity is fundamental in today's turbulent times. The new trend is the reference to essential services (ES). This paper aims to identify lead topics in the ES area and analyze actions to provide ES business continuity. The goal will be achieved by (1) identifying leading research topics using Latent Dirichlet Allocation, (2) conducting a systematic literature review using VOSviewer, (3) mapping the results obtained, and identifying possibilities for further research. Web of Science, Scopus, and specific keywords were used to select peer-reviewed papers discussing the ES issue. The results showed that, despite the importance of the ES issue, there are few publications related to the business continuity of ES. The work focuses on the relevance of ES to individual entities such as companies, cities, municipalities, and countries. There are also isolated works on ES security, but mainly in cybersecurity. The added value of the article is that it organizes the knowledge related to leading topics in the ES area from a Business, Management, and Accounting perspective and indicates the research areas that require further scrutiny. It is the first comprehensive literature review focusing specifically on ES.INDEX TERMS Business continuity, critical infrastructure, critical services, essential services, key services, literature review.

“…The overall strategy and vision for 5G development has remained centralised. The lead role is played by the federal/national government (Brake, 2020; NARUC, 2013; Holmes et al , 2020; US NTIA, 2021; Computerworld, 2017). A well-formed national broadband plan is a country’s blueprint for addressing digital inequality (Inter-American Development Bank, 2021) and adopting new technology.…”

Purpose This paper aims to draw lessons for telecommunications (telecom) network deployment in India, from a study of policy and regulatory approaches taken by other federal administrations in streamlining processes for site clearances, grant of rights of way (RoW) and approvals for local infrastructure deployment and sharing. With the urgent need for setting up small cells and rapid fiberisation of networks in the 5G era, the importance of such processes has gained prominence. Design/methodology/approach The authors adopt qualitative thematic content analysis with three-tier coding and classification to identify themes in archival and current documentary data and information obtained from subject-matter experts in the countries studied. Findings Formulation and implementation of telecom policy is led by national governments. However, national telecom administrations, in recognition of new needs, have co-opted states and local authorities as partners in development of telecom networks, providing the overall framework, guidance and appropriate incentives where required. Practical implications This cooperative model could work well in India, where telecom policy making and regulation is the prerogative of the central government, but administration of RoW and local clearances for cable laying, tower siting and associated infrastructure activities for expanding telecom networks are left to decentralised decision-making in the states and local bodies. Originality/value This research attempts to sytematise, thematise and draw cross-country comparisons to inform regulatory and administrative policy for 5G infrastructure rollout in India.
