Whereas it appears to the Secretary of State to be expedient to apply restrictions under section 7 of the Wireless Telegraphy Act 1967[1] to certain wireless telegraphy apparatus specified in this Order for the purpose of preventing or reducing the risk of interference with wireless telegraphy and to impose marking requirements in relation to certain such apparatus in accordance with the provisions of section 85 of the Telecommunications Act 1984[2]; And whereas the Secretary of State is satisfied as required by section 7(9) of the 1967 Act that this Order is compatible with the international obligations of the United Kingdom; Now, therefore, the Secretary of State, in exercise of the powers conferred on him by section 7(2) of the 1967 Act and section 85(1) of the 1984 Act and of all other powers enabling him in that behalf, hereby makes the following Order: Citation and commencement 1. This Order may be cited as the Wireless Telegraphy (Cordless Telephone Apparatus) (Restriction and Marking) (Amendment) Order 2000 and shall come into force on 1st May 2000. Interpretation 2.

The Principal Order is hereby amended as follows -
(vi) the following definition shall be inserted after the definition of "restricted cordless telephone apparatus" -
provided that the restricted actions listed above do not apply to a CT1 or an extended range CT1 which complies with Part II of Schedule 4 to the unamended 1999 Regulations prior to 1st May 2000 and in respect of which any such restricted action has occurred prior to 8th April 2001."; and

In addition, this Order provides that the restrictions in article 4(1) of the Principal Order in respect of manufacture, sale, possession and importation ("the restrictions") do not apply after 30th April 2000 to CT1 or extended range CT1 apparatus (as defined in article 3 of this Order; "CT apparatus") if CT apparatus complies with UK Radio Interface Requirement IR 2011.
