Radiocommunications Act 1989

Transfers and aggregations of management rights

46: Aggregation of management rights with common boundary

You could also call this:

"Combining frequency management rights that share a border"

Illustration for Radiocommunications Act 1989

You can ask the Registrar to combine management rights for ranges of frequencies that share a common boundary. The Registrar will check if the request is for ranges of frequencies that share a common boundary and if you have the management rights for those frequencies. If the Registrar is satisfied, they will cancel the separate records and create one record for all the ranges of frequencies. You can only make this request if all the records of management rights have the same expiry date. The Registrar will record that the separate records are cancelled, which means they are no longer valid. This process is part of the Radiocommunications Act 1989, which has been amended by the Radiocommunications Amendment Act 2006, as seen on the legislation website. The Registrar's decision is based on your request and the information they have about the management rights. You need to have the management rights for the frequencies you want to combine. The combined record will replace the separate records, making it easier to manage the frequencies.
