Notice of proposals to make the Wireless Telegraphy (Licence Charges) (Amendment) Regulations 2014

About this document

The Wireless Telegraphy Act 2006 gives Ofcom the power to set fees for wireless telegraphy licences in the UK. Many services, including broadcasting, radio and mobile phones are included under the remit of the Act.

This document explains Ofcom’s decision to amend existing Wireless Telegraphy Regulations, following a consultation published on 27 March 2014. The amendments explained in this document relate to changes to fees for Aeronautical, Broadcasting and Fixed Link wireless telegraphy licences issued by Ofcom. They also reflect the liberalisation of spectrum rights of use for the Public Wireless Networks (2G and 3G) in Guernsey, Jersey and the Isle of Man.
