The CBAA has provided comments on the consultation draft of the ACMA Five-Year Spectrum Outlook 2022-27 with a specific focus on the work program for the upcoming year 2022-23.

The CBAA comments are focussed primarily on optimising established planning frameworks and broadcasting, and specifically in regard to the immediate-term planning priorities for spectrum planning and licensing, including:

  • Remote area planning
  • Radio LAP variation for AM to FM conversion to prompt DRCP
  • Adding specific DRCP consultation locations during 2022-23
  • Brisbane, Gold Coast and neighbouring areas
  • Perth / Mandurah and Adelaide
  • Supporting technology trials

Our submission can be accessed on our Submissions Page.
