3

the inclusion in the service provided under that licence of any remunerated advertisement, or

b

the sponsorship of any programmes included in that service,

4

Any condition imposed by OFCOM pursuant to subsection (3) must specify such proportion of that total relevant income as appears to OFCOM to be likely to secure the result that—

the inclusion in the service provided under that licence of remunerated advertisements, and

b

the sponsorship of programmes included in that service,

do not prejudice unduly the economic viability of any other local service, other than a community radio service.

5

;

c

in subsection (1B), for the word “local” there were substituted the words “community radio”, and after that subsection there were added—

1C

Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (1), a community radio licence shall include such conditions as appear to OFCOM to be appropriate for securing that the holder of the licence does not enter into, or remain subject to, any arrangement if an effect of that arrangement is to allow another holder of a Broadcasting Act licence or the BBC to exercise an undue influence over the nature and content of the programmes included in the service provided under that licence.

1D

The period for which a licence may be extended on such an application is a period ending not more than five years after the end of the period for which it was granted originally.
