Section 80 Electronic communications apparatusI1
A licensing authority must not grant a marine licence to carry on any activity which amounts to or involves the exercise of a right conferred by paragraph 11 of the Electronic Communications Code unless it is satisfied that adequate compensation arrangements have been made.
For the purposes of subsection (1) “adequate compensation arrangements” are adequate arrangements for compensating any persons—
who appear to that authority to be owners of interests in the tidal water or lands on, under or over which the right is to be exercised,
for any loss or damage sustained by those persons in consequence of the activity being carried on.
In paragraph 11 of the Electronic Communications Code omit—
sub-paragraphs (3) to (10);
in sub-paragraph (11), the definition of “remedial works”.
In this section “the Electronic Communications Code” means the code set out in Schedule 2 to the Telecommunications Act 1984 (c. 12).
