These fees are calculated to help cover the cost of research and development grants paid out under the Telecommunications Act 1997. Each year, the Minister must issue a formal estimate of how much will be spent on these grants, and that dollar figure is plugged into the formula that works out each carrier's fees.\n\nThis document is that annual estimate for 2007-08, signed by the Minister. It directly affects how much telecom companies pay for their licences and ensures the grant program is funded."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/f2008l00967","history":"/api/acts/f2008l00967/history","analysis":"/api/acts/f2008l00967/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/f2008l00967/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/f2008l00967/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/f2008l00967/documents"}}
