Claim 13:
14. A terminal device for use in a wireless telecommunications system that supports first and second random access procedures for the terminal device, wherein an amount of data for an uplink message of the second random access procedure is greater than an amount of data for a corresponding uplink message of the first random access procedure, wherein the terminal device comprises:
circuitry configured to
determine the terminal device should implement a random access procedure;
select whether to follow the first random access procedure or the second random access procedure according to whether the terminal device intends to make use of the greater amount of data for the second random access procedure;
determine a common search space to use for receiving a scheduling message indicating radio resources for a random access procedure message transmitted by the network infrastructure equipment according to whether the terminal device has selected to follow the first random access procedure or the second random access procedure; and
monitor for the scheduling message using the selected common search space.
