The use of public radio broadcasting by radio amateurs, classified as a special use by Article 12 of the Law 32/2003, of 3 November, General of Telecommunications, as regards the use of the radio public domain, approved by Royal Decree 863/2008 of 23 May, requires a regulation capable of efficiently regulating the activity of radio amateurs, characterized by its objectives of pure intercommunication between persons who are interested in technical experimentation and radio propagation without For the sake of profit and for the number of practitioners as well as their proven ability to survive in a constantly changing world of technology, a relevant sector in the field of radio communications, which in many Exceptional situations have provided valuable services to citizens and bodies related to civil protection.

It is currently necessary to adapt the current Regulation of the use of public radio to fans, approved by Order ITC/1791/2006, of June 5, to the Regulation approved by Royal Decree 863/2008, May 23, as well as other subsequent standards, including decisions taken by the 2012 World Radiocommunications Conference.

The new regulation aims to address these deficiencies, incorporating ideas and suggestions that the radio fan sector demands for a more practical development of its activity.

The simplification of formalities and relations with the General Administration of the State is also subject to an important review, especially highlighting the elimination of the burden of communicating to the State Secretariat of Telecommunications and the Information Society, every five years, the intention to continue to use the public radio domain by the holders of administrative authorisations for special use of spectrum, radio amateurs and users of the citizens ' band CB-27, and consequently, the users of the the effects of the termination of administrative authorisations resulting from their non-compliance.

Finally, this order is intended to contribute to the development of the Information Society by means of the dissemination and making available to citizens of the telematic and virtual office procedures in the relations with the General Administration of the State.

Article 13 of the Implementing Regulation of Law 32/2003 of 3 November, General Telecommunications, regarding the use of radio public domain, approved by Royal Decree 863/2008 of 23 May, provides that the terms, conditions and time limits for authorisations for the special use of radio public domain shall be established by ministerial order. Similarly, the conditions for the exploitation of radio public domain under the special use modality should be established with the same regulatory range.

The order has the favorable report of the Telecommunications Market Commission (CMT), whose report is mandatory in accordance with the provisions of Article 48.3 (h) of Law 32/2003 of 3 November, which it attributes to the CMT the function of preceptively informing the procedures carried out by the General Administration of the State for the elaboration of normative provisions in the field of electronic communications and radio spectrum planning.

It also has the favorable report of the Advisory Council for Telecommunications and the Information Society (CATSI). This report is equivalent to the hearing referred to in Article 24.1.c) of Law 50/1997 of 27 November of the Government, as set out in the fifth provision of Law 32/2003 of 3 November, General de Telecommunications. In the CATSI, the General Administration of the State, the Autonomous Administrations, the Local Government, the users, as well as the operators who provide services or operate public electronic communications networks, are represented. service providers of the information society, the manufacturers of telecommunications equipment and of the information society and the most representative trade unions in the sector. Since the radio amateurs sector is not directly represented, the text of the project was submitted to a public survey on the site dedicated to the radio amateurs of the official page of the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism.

In its virtue, with the prior approval of the Minister of Finance and Public Administrations, I have:

Single item. Approval of the Regulation on the use of radio-amateur radio broadcasting.

The Regulation on the use of radio-amateur radio broadcasting is hereby approved.
