A copy of the licence was laid before Parliament on 7th November 1990. This Order designates those telecommunication systems as public telecommunication systems. Consequently, by virtue of section 9(3) of that Act, Coastal Cablevision of Dorset Ltd 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 EC4M 7JJ.
