The channel is received in over 150 remote locations such as telecentres, schools and colleges.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Using Westlink and Presenters )〕 It is fully funded by the Government of Western Australia and is managed and operated by the Department of Regional Development. ==Programming== The channel is primarily used for educational and talk-back style programs, including video conferences, corporate training videos, and health and educational focused training segments. Many of the programs are viewed in group situations, such as telecentres and TAFE colleges. Some bodies that utilise Westlink are; * Department of Health * Rural Health Education Foundation * Telethon Institute * Office of Shared Services * Diocesan Pastoral Formation Centre The now defunct community television channel Access 31 from Perth was once simulcast on weekends. This simulcast ended when Access 31 closed down on 6 August 2008. On 13 November 2009, community broadcaster Indigenous Community Television entered into an agreement with Westlink to allow them access to the then-Optus Aurora channel on weekends.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ICTV - Westlink Service )〕 The agreement ceased on 18 April 2013, when ICTV officially launched their own dedicated channel on the VAST service. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Westlink (Australian TV channel)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
