Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order substitutes 80 per cent. for 90 per cent. in section 54(1)(h) of the Broadcasting Act 1996 so as to provide that while a radio multiplex licence is in force, at least 80 per cent. of digital capacity on the frequency or frequencies to which the licence relates is available for the broadcasting of digital sound programme services, simulcast radio services, programme related services or relevant technical services. To date no radio multiplex licences have been awarded.
