The Australian Broadcasting Authority hereby varies the licence area plan (LAP) for radio broadcasting services in the Atherton area of Queensland, determined on 27 November 1997, under subsection 26(2) of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992.

The varied technical specifications now applicable to this service are set out in Schedule One and Attachment 1.4.1 to this instrument.

(Determined by the Australian Broadcasting Authority on 19 March 1998)

SCHEDULE

Each of the Schedules sets out:

• the category of each of the services that are to be available in that area (column one),

• the service licence number which has been allocated to the service, if appropriate (column two);  N/A = Not Applicable, as the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 only requires service licences for Commercial and Community services.

• the number of transmitters required to transmit the service,

• the transmitter specification number which has been allocated to each transmitter (column three),

• the identifying number of the attachment where the technical specifications for each transmitter are described (column four).  (Each set of technical specifications referred to in the Schedules is an attachment to this determination).
