(1) Subject to subsections (2), (3) and (3AA), a licensee of an apparatus licence may, by written instrument, authorise other persons to operate radiocommunications devices under the licence.
(2) The licensee must not authorise a person if to do so would be inconsistent with determinations of the ACMA under section 115.
(3) The licensee must not authorise a person if:
(a) the person has been issued an apparatus licence that:
(i) was or is of the same type as the licensee's licence; and
(ii) authorised operation of radiocommunications devices of the same kind as those to which the licensee's licence relates; and
(b) the person's licence:
(i) is suspended; or
(ii) has been cancelled within the last 2 years.
(3AA) The licensee must not authorise a person if:
(a) the licence is a digital radio multiplex transmitter licence; and
(b) the person is not a qualified company.
(4) Authorising other persons does not prevent the licensee doing anything in accordance with the licence.
