Method of ascertaining carrier licence charge
The amount of carrier licence charge imposed on a carrier licence in force at the beginning of the financial year that began on 1 July 2005, in relation to a carrier mentioned in an item in Schedule 1, is ascertained using the formula:

OTC (other telecommunications charge) is $180 550.
Note 1 The other telecommunications charge is the proportion of ACMA’s costs for the 2004-2005 financial year that:
(a) is attributable to ACMA’s telecommunications functions and powers; and
