Deirdre O'Donnell has been appointed as the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman, succeeding John Pinnock.

O'Donnell was previously the Western Australian Ombudsman, but has also worked in the telecommunications industry.

'Telecommunications is one of our most dynamic industries and that rate of change brings significant challenges for providers and consumers alike,' said O'Donnell. "The TIO has proved that it has an important part to play in the relationship between consumers and the industry. I am looking forward to ensuring that the TIO maintains its high standard of professionalism."
