System administrators for gateways that connect to Australian Eyes Only or Releasable To networks are Australian nationals.
The existing recommendation (ISM-0613) for system administrators of gateways connected to Australian Eyes Only (AUSTEO) or Australian Government Access Only (AGAO) networks to be Australian nationals was re-scoped to just AUSTEO networks. Meanwhile, a new recommendation was introduced (ISM-1773) to reflect that seconded foreign nationals are capable of performing system administration activities for gateways connected to AGAO and Releasable To (REL) networks.
