What type of licences will be granted?
The authorizations available for assignment are spectrum licences which are defined in subparagraph 5(1)(a)(i.1) of the Radiocommunication Act as authorizations “in respect of the utilization of specified radio frequencies within a defined geographic area”. To ensure that licensees can continue to quickly and efficiently adapt their public service offerings to changing consumer demands, the Department will provide licensees with the maximum possible flexibility in determining the services they will offer and the technologies they will employ.
