Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order classifies services provided under section 72(1) of the Broadcasting Act 1990 which are to be defined as local delivery services for the purposes of Part II of that Act.
Such services consist in the use of a telecommunication system (whether run by the person who uses it or not) for the purpose of the delivery of television and sound programmes for simultaneous reception in an area of more than a thousand dwelling houses.
The exceptions to this classification are set out in Part II of the Schedule to the Order and include services which transmit television and sound broadcasts and which only deliver the services of BBC1, BBC2, Channel 3, Channel 4, Channel 5 and S4C (whether in analogue or digital form), any restricted television service, and the terrestrial teletext services in both analogue and digital form.
