Radiocommunciations Licence Conditions (Maritime Ship Licence) Determination 2002

Remaking of sunsetting instrument without amendments – Australian Communications and Media Authority

The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) remade the Radiocommunications Licence Conditions (Maritime Ship Licence) Determination 2002 on 6 March 2015. The Determination sets out the conditions that maritime ship stations are required to follow to ensure that all maritime ships use the appropriate maritime frequencies, transmitter output power, and protocols to minimise the potential for interference to maritime radio operation. In line with the Australian Government best practice regulation requirements for sunsetting legislative instruments, the ACMA has assessed the operation of the Determination in consultation with affected stakeholders and has certified that it is operating efficiently and effectively. Therefore the Office of Best Practice Regulation notes that a Regulation Impact Statement is not required for the Determination to be remade. As the Determination was remade without amendments there are no compliance cost changes.
