MAYOR/GM 6329 (CC 102/5) Advising of a dividend payable to Wingecarribee Shire Council from Southern Phone Company. Mr Bill Hilzinger, Chairman of Southern Phone Company, will be in attendance to present the dividend cheque to Council. REPORT Council is a shareholder in the Southern Phone Company Limited, a local government- owned telecommunications provider. There are 41 Councils that hold two shares each in Southern Phone, purchased for $1 each. Only Councils can hold shares in the company, with the shareholding being a means of returning profits to the community. Southern Phone is an unlisted Public Company. Southern Phone was established in late 2002 with support from the Australian Government’s Networking the Nation Program with the aim of improving competition in telecommunications, particularly in regional Australia. The company is now a national full-service telco offering fixed line, mobile and internet services to customers in all states of Australia. The company’s Board made the decision to plough all profits back into the company for the first three full years of operation. Operations in 2006-07 saw the company make a $216,677 profit on total revenues of $16,617,485. As a result the Board has declared a $50,000 dividend to shareholders. The profit is divided among shareholders according to a formula that sees 20 per cent of the dividend equally among all shareholders and the remaining 80 per cent paid in proportion to the amount of business generated in the Council area. The dividend paid to Council this year is $2,126.48. The full list of dividends paid to Councils is attached. Those Councils with the greatest dividend generally have placed Council’s own telecommunications with Southern Phone, increasing the amount of business generated in the Council area. Page 5 ORDINARY MEETING OF COUNCIL held in the Council Chamber, Civic Centre, Elizabeth Street, Moss Vale on Wednesday, 27 February 2008 MAYORAL MINUTES Some Councils have also worked to develop the number of customers in their area by working with the company on placing promotional material in rates notices. ATTACHMENTS Copy of list of dividends from Southern Phone Company. RECOMMENDATION 1. THAT the information be received and noted. 2. THAT Mayor Lewis receives the dividend payment cheque on behalf of Council from Mr Bill Hilzinger, Chairman of Southern Phone Company. Page 6 ORDINARY MEETING OF COUNCIL held

Major award winners have the benefit of Sydney Royal medal artwork to promote their success to collectors, customers and consumers. The increased interest can help our rural communities to remain strong and vibrant. We review our Competitions every year, to ensure they remain relevant to industry standards and trends, and we always welcome feedback.
