2 Base amount, relevant frequency band, total specified spectrum and SL bandwidth

(1) For the purposes of this Schedule: (a) if a licensed frequency range in a spectrum licence falls within a frequency band specified in column 1 of the table, the frequency band is a relevant frequency band for the licence; and (b) column 2 specifies the total specified spectrum for each relevant frequency band for the licence; and (c) column 3 specifies the base amount for each relevant frequency band for the licence.

Note: Each frequency band in column 1 comprises a part of the spectrum in which the ACMA has allocated or issued spectrum licences, or has made arrangements for the allocation and issue of spectrum licences.

(2) In this Schedule, the SL bandwidth of a licensed frequency range, for a relevant frequency band, is the amount of spectrum (in MHz) in the licensed frequency range that falls within the relevant frequency band.
