Government to speak on TETRA radio system in Poland

The Isle of Man will be represented at the Freedom and Security conference in Poland next month.

 

Robert Williamson from the Department of Home Affairs Communications Division will highlight the benfits of the TETRA system.

 

The Terrestrial Trunked Radio system is used by 21 agencies across the Island's Government including the emergency services.

 

Poland is currently looking into its own communication network, and hopes to learn from the experiences of the Isle of Man.

 

Since TETRA was brought in on the Island, the Emergency Services Joint Control Room has handled more than nine million calls through the system..

 

The conference takes place in Gdansk in June
