Clause 154 - Grant of recognised spectrum access
Communications Bill
2:32 pm

Mr Stephen Timms (Minister of State (e-Commerce & Competitiveness), Department of Trade and Industry; East Ham, Labour)
I think that it would, and that is why clause 154(9) refers to ''Section 388''. It will be necessary to make regulations to put the arrangement in place and to make it work, even though RSA will be voluntary, as the hon. Gentleman rightly says. We will return to that point this afternoon, but the safeguards that clause 388 provides will apply. In the light of that assurance, I hope that that the hon. Gentleman will feel able to withdraw the amendment.
