Spectrum Management and Telecommunications Radiocom Spectrum Licensing | ||
Consultation on Radio Licence Fees - Phase 1, February 1996PDF Format, 218
KB Under the authority of the Minister of Industry, Industry Canada is responsible for radio licensing and spectrum management. These activities are carried out through the Spectrum Information Technologies and Telecommunications Sector and by Industry Canada's regional and district offices. In the past few years, the radiocommunications field has been growing rapidly, and a wide range of innovations has been introduced. Industry Canada recognized that the current radio licence fee system, which is based strictly on radio apparatus, does not have the flexibility to deal quickly and easily with a number of these innovations. As a result, Industry Canada decided to undertake a thorough review of its licence fee structure. A multi-disciplinary team of experts from the field of Spectrum Management was asked to develop a proposal for a new fee structure that would be simple, flexible and fair for all applicants. |
