Allowing the 1.5 GHz band plan to sunset

Radiocommunications

The Radiocommunications 1.5 GHz Frequency Band Plan 2015 is due to sunset on 1 October 2025.

We believe the band plan is still needed until we have finished our review of the band. However, we feel the provisions can be set out in a spectrum embargo, instead of an instrument. 

We propose to allow the band plan to sunset and include the provisions in Spectrum Embargo 70. You can access full details in the consultation paper above. 

No changes to the allocations in the 1.5 GHz band are proposed at this time. We will consult on the review of the 1427–1535 MHz band in a separate consultation.

We invite your feedback about the consultation proposals.
