Digital dividend green paper
The Australian Government has released a green paper seeking public comment on the benefits and costs of maximising Australia’s digital dividend.
The paper establishes a Government target to release 126 MHz of contiguous UHF spectrum for use by other services when it is vacated by analogue TV services switching to Digital TV.
To release this amount of contiguous spectrum requires that some digital services move to new channels.
Interested parties are asked to access the green paper and make comments by 5.0pm on the 26th February 2010.
The digital green paper is available at
