[cma-l] Ofcom - tomorrow

[Bill Best]

Ian

I again draw your attention to Ofcom's consultation "Community radio:
future licensing and technical policy" published on 28th October 2016:

1.4 We anticipate that our current (third) round of licensing will draw to
a close in late spring 2017, and that licensing of small-scale DAB services
may not commence before 2018. In the interim, we propose to license more
analogue services, as well as consider coverage improvements for existing
services.

category-2/cr-future-licensing

*We will be asking for further clarification of Ofcom's deadline and
insisting that Ofcom publishes its response to the technical consultation
that Sharon White indicated would be delivered by the end of April.*

Regards

Bill
