      "text": "1949 c. 54; section 2 is amended by paragraph 2 of Part I of Schedule 18 to the Broadcasting Act 1990 (c. 42). That part of that Schedule was extended to Guernsey by the Broadcasting Act 1990 (Guernsey) Order 1991 (S.I. 1991/191); to Jersey by the Broadcasting Act 1990 (Jersey) Order 1991 (S.I. 1991/193); and to the Isle of Man by the Broadcasting Act 1990 (Isle of Man) Order 1991 (S.I. 1991/192). Section 2 is further amended by paragraph 1 of Schedule 1 to the Wireless Telegraphy Act 1998 (c. 6), and those amendments are extended to Guernsey by the Wireless Telegraphy (Guernsey) Order 1998 (S.I. 1998/1511); to Jersey by the Wireless Telegraphy (Jersey) Order 1998 (S.I. 1998/1512); and to the Isle of Man by the Wireless Telegraphy (Isle of Man) Order 1998 (S.I. 1998/1510). The amendments made by the 1998 Act in part supersede those made by the 1990 Act and accordingly paragraph 2(2) of Part I of Schedule 18 to the 1990 Act is repealed by Schedule 2 to the 1998 Act."
