(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Wireless Telegraphy (Exemption) Regulations 2021 (the “Principal Regulations”).
Regulations 4 to 9 of the Principal Regulations exempt the establishment, installation and use of certain radio equipment which comply with certain terms, provisions and limitations, from the requirement to be licensed under section 8(1) of the Wireless Telegraphy Act. These Regulations amend wording to correct drafting errors in the Principal Regulations and correct the description and publication date of the Interface Requirement documents.
Technical requirements are set out in Interface Requirement documents. The Interface Requirements are published by OFCOM and available to the public from OFCOM’s website at https://www.ofcom.org.uk or from the OFCOM library at Riverside House, 2a Southwark Bridge Road, London, SE1 9HA.
These Regulations do not have any effect on the cost of business additional to the effect of the Principal Regulations and a full regulatory impact assessment of the effect the Principal Regulations will have on the cost to business has been prepared and is available to the public from the OFCOM’s website https://www.ofcom.org.uk or from the OFCOM library at Riverside House, 2a Southwark Bridge Road, London, SE1 9HA. Copies of the impact assessment have also been placed in the libraries of the Houses of Parliament.
