New licence for Braidwood

Braidwood will get a new community radio service.

The ABA has released a revised proposal to make channel capacity available for an additional community radio service in Braidwood, New South Wales. The ABA has also revised its proposal to change the operating conditions of the existing commercial radio services in Braidwood.

The proposals are contained in a revised explanatory paper and draft variation to the Goulburn licence area plan.

The ABA determined the radio licence area plan for Goulburn in mid 1999. Since that time the ABA has received requests for a variation to this licence area plan. The populations of the Goulburn commercial and community radio licence areas, were initially determined using 1996 Census figures.
