Satellite Regulatory & Policy Implications Satellite Has a Strong Track Record Essential Tool for Broadband Delivery Largely in Industrialised Nations Policy Can Facilitate Its Use To Elevate Economic, Health,
Education Standards

Satellite Regulatory Reform:Acting Nationally, Thinking Regionally
Challenge:– Onerous Licensing– Non-Transparency– Slow Type Approvals– Stifled Competition– Restricted Access to
Satellite Capacity
Solution/Trend:– Licensing Reforms– One Stop Shops– MRA, Self Declaration
– Liberalization– Improved Access to
Satellite Capacity

The Blanket Licensing Concept
Define Criteria for VSAT Terminal Type That Ensures No Interference Caused
Issue Single ‘Blanket’ License for Thousands of Identical-Type VSATs
Vital Services Are Provided Faster and at a Much Lower End-User Cost

The U.S. Experience
Implemented a Decade Ago Facilitated Deployment of World’s
Largest Installed VSAT Base
“We wish we’d done it sooner.”
