ACMA Extends Norfolk Island Council's Broadcasting License

The ACMA has decided to extend the period of Norfolk Island Regional Council's (NIRC) community broadcasting licence by a further two years to 16 June 2025.

This will enable the service to continue while the ACMA considers an application by NIRC to approve the transfer of its existing licence to Norfolk Island Radio Ltd.

NIRC has been providing community radio service Norfolk Island Radio VL2NI under the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 since June 2021. Prior to this date broadcasting services on Norfolk Island were regulated under the Norfolk Island Broadcasting Act 2001 (Norfolk Island).
