RSGB Strategy for 2017-2022 The RSGB have made available online their new strategy for the next five years The associated Narrative document points out that "there is no intention that the RSGB or Ofcom should force people to move through the licence levels" The Society has clarified the geographical coverage of the organisation saying: “The RSGB represents radio amateurs within the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, both nationally and internationally.” This may be included in the RSGB Articles of Association and/or Bylaws in due course. In recent documents Ofcom has adopted the use of the term "British Islands". This is defined in the UK Government Interpretation Act 1978 and when fully expanded means "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man" but is much shorter. http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1978/30/contents Read the Strategy and download the Strategy Narrative PDF document at http://rsgb.org/main/about-us/board-of-directors/rsgb-strategy/ http://www.southgatearc.org/news/2017/may/rsgb-strategy-for-2017-2022.htm
