Key documents

The issue

The Radiocommunications Licence Conditions (Maritime Ship Licence) Determination 2015 (Maritime Ship LCD) and Radiocommunications (Minimum Age for Issue of Certificates of Proficiency) Declaration 2015 (Minimum Age Declaration) are due to sunset on 1 April 2025 and 1 October 2025 respectively. 

The Maritime Ship LCD sets out conditions on the operation of maritime ship stations. This includes:

  • operating frequencies
  • power for various technology and technical procedures. 

The Minimum Age Declaration provides age requirements for marine radio qualifications. 

We believe the 2 instruments form a necessary and useful part of the regulatory framework. We propose they should be remade with minor changes.
