A method of operating a communications device in a wireless communications network, the method comprising determining that the communications device should transmit a first uplink signal comprising control information to the wireless communications network in a set of uplink resources of a wireless access interface, determining that the communications device should transmit a second uplink signal to the wireless communications network, wherein the second uplink signal is to be transmitted a plurality of times (136.1, 136.2, 136.3, 136.4), each of the plurality of transmissions of the second uplink signal being a repetition of the second uplink signal, wherein each repetition of the second uplink signal is to be transmitted in a different set of uplink resources of the wireless access interface to the other repetitions of the second uplink signal, determining that the resources of the first uplink signal at least partially overlap in time with the resources of at least one of the repetitions of the second uplink signal, multiplexing the control information into the resources of a selected one or more of the repetitions of the second uplink signal, and transmitting the multiplexed signal to the wireless communications network, wherein a characteristic of the resources of the selected one or more repetitions of the second uplink signal satisfies a predetermined condition, wherein the characteristic is an amount of available resources, and the predetermined condition is that the amount of available resources is equal to or greater than an uplink control information threshold, and characterized in that the amount of available resources is a minimum from among an amount of resources that the communications device is able to use for the control information and/or data information and a total amount of available resources determined by the communications device dependent on a scaling factor, the scaling factor being configured via RRC signalling from the wireless communications network. determining that the communications device should transmit a first uplink signal comprising control information to the wireless communications network in a set of uplink resources of a wireless access interface, determining that the communications device should transmit a second uplink signal to the wireless communications network, wherein the second uplink signal is to be transmitted a plurality of times (136.1, 136.2, 136.3, 136.4), each of the plurality of transmissions of the second uplink signal being a repetition of the second uplink signal, wherein each repetition of the second uplink signal is to be transmitted in a different set of uplink resources of the wireless access interface to the other repetitions of the second uplink signal, determining that the resources of the first uplink signal at least partially overlap in time with the resources of at least one of the repetitions of the second uplink signal, multiplexing the control information into the resources of a selected one or more of the repetitions of the second uplink signal, and transmitting the multiplexed signal to the wireless communications network, wherein a characteristic of the resources of the selected one or more repetitions of the second uplink signal satisfies a predetermined condition, wherein the characteristic is an amount of available resources, and the predetermined condition is that the amount of available resources is equal to or greater than an uplink control information threshold, and characterized in that the amount of available resources is a minimum from among an amount of resources that the communications device is able to use for the control information and/or data information and a total amount of available resources determined by the communications device dependent on a scaling factor, the scaling factor being configured via RRC signalling from the wireless communications network. <EOS>
