The terms and conditions of licence are set out in the appendix to this decision. The Commission did not receive any interventions regarding this application.

Pursuant to section 22 of the Broadcasting Act, the broadcasting licence renewed in this decision will cease to have any force or effect if the broadcasting certificate issued by the Department of Industry lapses.
