Revision of the Amateur Radio Licensing framework

One of the services which the MCA regulates is the Amateur Radio.  In this respect the MCA issues licences to persons holding a valid amateur radio qualification. Given that the general principles founding the current amateur radio licensing framework were established several years ago, the MCA deems appropriate to revise this framework to, amongst other things, regulate this service better and implement ‘best practice’ licensing principles.

Interested stakeholders are invited to submit their opinions in writing by not later than 12:00hrs on 2 February 2018.  The responses received will assist the MCA to finalise its proposals to Government with respect to the licensing of the amateur radio service.
