Status: Closed (statement published)
This document sets out our decision to make spectrum in the 1452 -1492 MHz, 2350-2390 MHz and 3410-3600 MHz bands subject to the Mobile Trading Regulations.
This means that, before licences in these bands can be traded, Ofcom's consent is required and Ofcom may conduct a competition assessment to determine whether the trade may distort competition.
At the same time as making this decision, we have also made a related decision to vary the spectrum access licence for the 1452 -1492 MHz band held by Qualcomm UK Spectrum Ltd so as to enable its use for provision of mobile services (using Supplementary Downlink technology). That decision is contained in a separate statement published today.
