Recommendation 8

8 Paragraph: 39

Amend Bill to enable Ofcom to de-designate legacy devices from provisions.

Recommendation
There is broad agreement between platforms and broadcasters on the need for provision in the Bill to ensure legacy devices can be exempted from requirements on radio selection services. We believe that allowing Ofcom to exempt some previously- designated devices on legacy grounds would address this issue. We recommend the Bill be amended to enable Ofcom to de-designate legacy devices so that they are no longer subject to the provisions.
