New Zealand Repeaters Licence Fees updateThe decision by the New Zealand Regulator MED to charge £17:34 ($50 NZ) for repeater licences has caused considerable disquiet among the country's Radio Amateurs. The National Society NZART has been trying to get the decision changed and have issued the following update on the situation: NZART President Bruce Douglas ZL2WP, states: Attached for general information are the two principal papers which accompanied the approach by the President and the Administration Liaison Officer initially made to the Hon Peter Dunne MP. First is a paper entitled “Amateur Radio Repeaters - and Licence Fees (Synopsis).” Secondly, there is a detailed (26 page) paper entitled "Amateur Radio Repeater and Licence Fees.” With this publication members can see what efforts were made on their behalf in respect of this particular approach. The President and the Administration Liaison Officer received a sympathetic hearing to their approach and record their appreciation of the efforts to which the Minister subsequently went to in support of NZART.” This material may assist others in independent approaches, says Bruce.
