New regulations on installing public radio-communication stations in place

The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) has announced the issuance of the regulation on permitting, installation, upgrading and maintenance of public radio-communication stations (PRS).

The regulation was developed in coordination with the Municipalities Affairs, Civil Aviation Affairs, Supreme Council for the Environment, General Directorate of Civil Defence and other concerned government entities, the TRA said in a statement issued. “Each of the stakeholders established its criteria and conditions that the telecom operators shall consider in order to allow TRA to issue the final permits to deploy the public radio-communications stations.”

This move aims to regulate the PRSs situation in the Kingdom by applying the requirements and conditions stipulated when designing, deploying, development and maintenance of PRSs according to Decree No 48 of 2002 and the Prime Ministerial Decision No. 45 of 2015 as well as the laws.
