Service locations

NEC Australia Pty Ltd will be required to establish around 2,000 seniors internet kiosks nationally.

Geographical locations have been prioritised into three categories, according to seniors

population, income level, education and the Socio-Economic Index for Areas (SEIFA).

The three categories being:

A - High need postal areas for which more than one kiosk site each is recommended

B - High need postal areas for which one kiosk site each is recommended

C - Lower need postal areas

NEC Australia will engage a National Coordination Team to assist kiosks, with a contact in each State and Territory.

NEC will develop and implement a suitable service delivery strategy, taking into consideration:

  • Service demand and the postal areas of demonstrated need provided by the Department of Families, Housing, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs
  • Local community organisations able to operate an internet kiosk or kiosks in the identified locations and willing to provide free broadband and training services
