(This note is not part of the Order)
The Broadcasting Act 1990 describes one type of television programme service under that Act as a non-domestic satellite service.Part of the definition of this service is that it consists in the transmission of television programmes by satellite for general reception in the United Kingdom or in any prescribed country (or both) where the programmes are transmitted from a place which is either in the United Kingdom or is neither in the United Kingdom nor in any prescribed country.
The Broadcasting (Prescribed Countries) Order 1991 specified prescribed countries as one of the steps necessary to implement Council Directive 89/552/EEC(3) on the coordination of certain provisions laid down by law, regulation or administrative action in Member States concerning the pursuit of television broadcasting activities.
This Order substitutes a new Schedule to the 1991 Order so as to specify additional countries which are added as one of the steps necessary to implement the European Convention on Transfrontier Television(4).
