We received 14 public submissions, which you can now access at the bottom of this page. 

Previous consultation: The issue

After the release of our discussion paper in June 2024 and other targeted consultations, we have a new draft Numbering Plan and draft Portability Suppliers Determination for consultation. 

We are proposing to let the Pre-selection Determination sunset on 1 April 2025.

Key changes in the draft Numbering Plan include: 

  • the introduction of new number ranges for internet of things services
  • mobile numbers classified as their own number type  
  • the removal of redundant or low-use number types and ranges
  • a provision to cancel the enhanced rights of use for smartnumbers if the number is used for scam calls.
