Broadcasting Services Act 1992

Each international broadcasting licence is subject to the following conditions:

the licensee must cause a record of programs broadcast on the international broadcasting service concerned to be made in a form approved in writing by the ACMA;

the licensee must retain in its custody a record so made for a period of 90 days after the broadcast;

the licensee must, without charge, make available to the ACMA, on request, any specified record made by the licensee under paragraph (a) that has been retained by the licensee (whether or not the licensee is, at the time of the request, under an obligation to retain the record).

This section does not apply to an international broadcasting licence if a nominated broadcaster declaration is in force in relation to the international broadcasting service concerned.

Corresponding conditions apply to nominated broadcaster declarations—see section 121FLE.
