Notice No. SLPB-002-14 — Decisions on conditions of licence regarding research and development and Learning Plans
The purpose of this notice is to announce two decisions related to conditions of licence. First, it announces Industry Canada's decision to modify a condition of licence requiring licensees to invest a portion of their adjusted gross revenues in research and development (R&D) activities. This issue was raised in the public consultation process initiated in April 2009 through Canada Gazette Notice No. DGRB-001-09 — Consultation on revisions to the framework for spectrum auctions in Canada. The resultant decision paper stated that Industry Canada's decision with regard to the R&D condition of licence would be the subject of a separate paper to be issued at a later date. As a result of this decision, Industry Canada will update GL-03 — Guidelines for Compliance with the Radio Authorization Condition of Licence Relating to Research and Development.
This notice also announces Industry Canada's decision to replace a condition of licence requiring certain licensees in the 2500 MHz band to invest in a Learning Plan with the requirement that they invest a portion of their adjusted gross revenues in R&D activities. Comments on this issue were received following the issuance of Canada Gazette Notice No. DGRB-005-09 — Consultation on transition to Broadband Radio Service (BRS) in the band 2500-2690 MHz.
