Notice No. DGTP-020-98 - Revisions to the canadian table of frequency allocations - 1998

This Notice announces the release of the decision on modifications to the Canadian Table of Frequency Allocations. Proposals to amend the Canadian Table were made by Canada Gazette Notice DGTP-003-97 promulgated in February, 1997.

The Canadian Table of Frequency Allocations is derived from the International Table of Frequency Allocations adopted by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) at various World Radiocommunication Conferences (WRCs). The Canadian Table allocates frequency bands to radio services within the scope of the International Table and as required to meet Canadian needs. Canadian footnotes provide the particular provisions and conditions for use of those radio services in Canada. Industry Canada revises the Canadian Table on a periodic basis.

The document entitled Revisions to the Canadian Table of Frequency Allocations - 1998 provides the results of the consideration of the proposed modifications to the Table which incorporate the decisions of the 1995 World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-95). Both the policy document and the new edition of the Canadian Table of Frequency Allocations, are available electronically via the Internet at the following address:
