 (a) a specified part of the spectrum is subject to re-allocation under Part 3.6 (the declared part of the spectrum) in relation to the re-allocation period for the declaration; and
 (b) under subsection 153B(3) of the Act, specifies an area (the declared area) for the declared part of the spectrum.
 (2) A person must not operate a radiocommunications transmitter that is, or is part of, a registration exempt station at frequencies in the declared part of the spectrum and within the declared area on or after the day the re-allocation period for the declaration ends.
