Part 2: Digital infrastructure Section 9: Penalties for contravention of wireless telegraphy licences
This section widens the circumstances in which Ofcom may impose a penalty for contravention of a wireless telegraphy licence.
	Subsections (2)-(4) amend section 42 of the 2006 Act and the heading to that section. Subsection (2) amends section 42 so that Ofcom’s power to impose a penalty under section 42 applies where a person is or has been in contravention in any respect of the terms, provisions or limitations of a wireless telegraphy licence. Subsection (3) inserts a definition of "relevant multiplex contravention".
	Subsections (5) to (7) amend section 43. Subsection (6) inserts new subsection (2A) into section 43. This specifies the amount of a penalty imposed under section 42 for a contravention that is not a relevant multiplex contravention. The amount of a penalty for a relevant multiplex contravention is dealt with in section 43(1) and (2).
	Subsection (8) repeals section 43A. Subsection (12) repeals section 39 of the Digital Economy Act 2010 (which inserted section 43A into the 2006 Act).
