"What the Radio Register Looks Like"

Illustration for Radiocommunications Act 1989

The register is kept in a form that the Registrar thinks is suitable. You can think of the register like a big book or a computer file that stores information. The register contains information about management rights, transfers, and licences that affect certain frequencies, including radio licences granted by the Secretary under Part 13, and other matters that need to be registered. The register can be stored on a computer. It has details like records of management rights and particulars of spectrum licences.
