Important Safety Notice: National Phone Alert Test

Upcoming National Emergency Alert Test - A nationwide test of the Emergency Alert system will be broadcast to mobile phones across Australia on Monday, 27 July.

⚠️ Crucial Detail: This broadcast will trigger a very loud, distinct sound and display an emergency notification directly on all active mobile screens.

Domestic and Family Safety Advice

If you or someone you know is living with domestic or family violence, a sudden, loud phone alert could present a serious safety risk—especially if keeping a secondary, hidden mobile device.
Please consider taking the following precautions:
*Plan Your Location: Think about where you will physically be when the broadcast occurs.
*Silence Hidden Devices: Disconnect, power down completely, or securely manage any secret phones ahead of time to prevent them from sounding.
*Prioritize Personal Safety: Trust your instincts. You know your personal living situation and risks best.
