  • The frequency for each transmitter (column three) does not form part of the licence area plan decision and is included for reference only.
     
  • the service licence number which has been allocated to the service, if appropriate (column four);  N/A = Not Applicable, as the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 only requires service licences for Commercial and Community services.
