156: Incumbent to give notice of intention to exercise transitional right

You could also call this:

"Tell the Secretary in writing if you want to manage a frequency"

Illustration for Radiocommunications Act 1989

You need to tell the Secretary if you want to be the manager of a certain frequency. You must do this in writing within 10 working days of a record being made. This record is about management rights for that frequency, as stated in section 10(2). You also need to say in your notice if you want to pay an annual levy as stated in section 157, or another amount. You cannot change your mind about this choice. If you do not tell the Secretary within the time limit, you will lose your right to be the manager of that frequency, as given by section 155.
