WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY ( JERSEY ) ORDER 2006
REPORT
The Minister has been authorised by Act of the States dated 22nd November 2006 to request extension of the Wireless Telegraphy Act 2006 to Jersey. The Order will extend to the Bailiwick the Wireless Telegraphy Act 2006, which consolidates all the provisions relating to wireless telegraphy formerly contained in a number of Acts of Parliament. The relevant Acts of Parliament which apply to the Bailiwick of Jersey are—
The Wireless Telegraphy Act 1949 (c.54)
The Marine,&c., Broadcasting (Offences) Act 1967 (c.41)
The Wireless Telegraphy Act 1967 (c.72)
The Telecommunications Act 1984 (c.12)
The Broadcasting Act 1990 (c.42)
The Wireless Telegraphy Act 1998 (c.6)
The Communications Act 2003 (c.21)
The Order (attached) sets out the provisions of the Act which are to extend. The modifications which are to apply are set out in Schedule 1 to the Order. Schedule 2 sets out the modifications to and the revocations of previous Orders in Council. The Order may be subject to very minor drafting corrections before being sanctioned.
The States had been requested to consider the matter by the Office of Communications in the UK in order that licensing matters can be considered in broadly the same manner in both jurisdictions. The Order simplifies and consolidates existing provisions.
The Order is to be considered at the next Privy Council meeting on 14th December 2006.
