The Wireless Telegraphy (Recognised Spectrum Access and Licence) (Spectrum Trading) (Amendment) Regulations 2015

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Wireless Telegraphy (Recognised Spectrum Access and Licence) (Spectrum Trading) Regulations 2009 (S.I. 2009/17, amended by S.I. 2011/440 and S.I. 2011/2761), which authorise the transfer of all or part of the rights and obligations arising by virtue of certain grants of recognised spectrum access or wireless telegraphy licences.

These Regulations add the grants of recognised spectrum access in respect of receive-only stations operating within certain frequency bands.

A full regulatory impact assessment of the effect that these Regulations will have on the costs to business is available to the public from OFCOM’s website at http://www.ofcom.org.uk or from the OFCOM Library at Riverside House, 2a Southwark Bridge Road, London SE1 9HA.
