The information includes commencement details for amending laws and details of any application, saving or transitional provisions that are not included in this compilation.\n\nEndnote 4 (Amendment history) provides information about the amendments at the provision (generally section or equivalent) level and includes information about any provision of the compiled law that has been repealed in accordance with a provision of the law.\n\nIt also includes information about any misdescribed amendment (that is, an amendment that does not accurately describe the amendment to be made). If, despite the misdescription, the amendment can be given effect as intended, the amendment is incorporated into the compiled law and the abbreviation “(md)” added to the details of the amendment included in the amendment history. If a misdescribed amendment cannot be given effect as intended, the abbreviation “(md not incorp)” is added to the details of the amendment included in the amendment history.\n\nEndnote 2—Abbreviation key\n\n| ad = added or inserted                        |     |\n| --------------------------------------------- | --- |\n| am = amended                                  |     |\n| rep. = repealedrs. = repealed and substituted |     |\n\n  \n\nEndnote 3—Legislation history\n\n| Name                                                                                                     | Registration or Notification in Gazette | Commencement | Application, saving andtransitional provisions |\n| -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- | ------------ | ---------------------------------------------- |\n| Licence Area Plan Cooma Area (Radio) – July 1999                                                         | 11/08/1999F2005B00593                   | 11/08/1999   |                                                |\n| Licence Area Plan – Cooma Area (Radio) – Variation – November 2003                                       | 12/11/2003F2005B00669                   | 12/11/2003   |                                                |\n| Licence Area Plan – Cooma Area (Radio) - Variation – September 2004                                      | 13/10/2004 F2005B00670                  | 13/10/2004   |                                                |\n| Variation to Licence Area Plan for Cooma Radio – No. 1 of 2011                                           | 16/08/2011 F2011L01657                  | 17/08/2011   |                                                |\n| Broadcasting Services (Technical Planning) Guidelines (Consequential Amendments) Instrument 2017 (No. 1) | 29/09/2017F2017L01299                   | 30/09/2017   |                                                |\n| Variation to Licence Area Plan – Cooma Radio – 2019 (No.1)                                               | 28/5/2019F2019L00693                    | 29/5/2019    |                                                |\n\n> Note: Endnote 4—Amendment history\n\n| Provision affected | How affected                                                               |\n| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| Title pagePage 2   | am.
