IARU Region 1 initiated changes to CEPT Licence and CEPT Novice Licence
<http://www.iaru-r1.org/index.php/regulatory-affairs/1610-iaru-region-1-initiated-changes-to-cept-licence-and-cept-novice-licence>Recent
changes to the relevant CEPT recommendations now make it easier for
countries outside Europe to join the framework of the CEPT licence and the
CEPT Novice licence. At the same time the syllabus for the Harmonized
Amateur Radio Examination Certificate (HAREC) has been amended to include
questions on the Radio Amateur Code of Conduct and on operating practices.
The changes, initiated by IARU Region 1, were approved by the Working Group
Frequency Management (WGFM) of CEPT and are now in force.

For many years radio amateurs in Europe have enjoyed free and
unbureaucratic short-term cross-border operation in 42 countries that have
implemented CEPT recommendation T/R 61-01. The recommendation also provides
for Non-CEPT countries to join the CEPT licence scheme. However so far only
Australia, Canada, , Israel, Netherlands overseas countries within the
Kingdom of the Netherlands and overseas territories of the Netherlands in
ITU Region 2 , New Zealand, Peru, South Africa and the United States have
implemented T/R 61-01.

*Statement of Conformity for Non-CEPT countries*

To facilitate the participation of countries from outside Europe, IARU
Region 1 proposed to introduce the concept of a «Statement of Conformity»
to be included in the latest version of T/R 61-01. The administration of a
country wishing to join the CEPT licence framework now can, after careful
scrutiny of its licence requirements, declare which of its national licence
classes is equivalent to the CEPT licence and vice-versa. Until now CEPT‘s
European Communications Office (and its predecessor) in Copenhagen had to
examine the equivalency of licence requirements in a complicated process.
WGFM approved this IARU Region 1 simplification initiative and in addition
detrmined that the same «Statement of Conformity» concept should also be
introduced into ECC Recommendation (05)06,the CEPT Novice licence.

*Responsibility and Good Operating Practices*

WGFM also approved amendments to the examination syllabus for the
Harmonized Amateur Radio Examination Certificate (HAREC) in recommendation
T/R 61-02. To date the syllabus has not contained any references to
responsible conduct on the air and to operating practices. This has been
corrected by amending the syllabus to include these topics. IARU Region 1
is convinced that these change are necessary considering the increasing
problems that the Amateur Service is having with deliberate and
unintentional QRM. IARU Region 1 president Don Beattie says: «These
amendments are both appropriate and consistent with CEPT and ITU objectives
of achieving efficient and effective utilisation of the radio spectrum and
will play some part in helping create better understanding of the duty of
all radio amateurs to practise responsible behaviour on the bands.»

These changes are already in place for the CEPT licence examination
(HAREC). A slightly modified version of the T/R 61-02 amendment is likely
to be included in the syllabus for the CEPT Novice licence. WGFM is going
to consider this at its meeting in Bordeaux, France in October 2016.

The new version of T/R 61-01 can be found here

T/R 61-02 is available here
<http://www.erodocdb.dk/docs/doc98/official/pdf/TR6102.pdf>. The updated
syllabus can be found in Annex 6 of the T/R 61-02 document
