Explanatory note

The Secretary of State granted to Fenland Cablevision Limited on 29th October 1990 a licence under section 7 of the Telecommunications Act 1984 to run the telecommunica-tion systems specified in Annex A to that licence, in all but the northernmost tip of the District of Fenland. A copy of the licence was laid before Parliament on 12th December 1990. This Order designates those telecommunication systems as public telecommunica-tion systems. Consequently, by virtue of section 9(3) of that Act, Fenland Cablevision Limited will be a public telecommunications operator when the Order comes into force.

A copy of the licence may be obtained from the Office of Telecommunications, Export House, 50 Ludgate Hill, London EC4N 7JJ.
