UCC Releases a List of 50 Authorized FM Radio Stations

UCC releases a list of authorized radio stations, says those not on the list are set to be closed.

Following a government order earlier this year to have all radios re-apply for licenses, the Uganda Communications Commission (UCC) has released a list of over 50 radios stations licensed to operate in the country. 

According to Eng. Irene Kaggwa Sewankambo the acting Executive Director of UCC, stations that have not yet been relicensed should do so earlier enough or face closure.

She said that this has been done to enable the government to embark on a new license regime, which commenced in July this year in accordance with sections 5(1) (b), 6(1) (e) and 39 of the UCC Act, 2013.

Below are the details in full 

LIST OF AUTHORISED RADIO BROADCASTERS IN UGANDA – radio broadcasters not on this list must resolve outstanding compliance issues.

The Uganda Communication Commission (the Commission) was established under section 4 of the Uganda Communications Act, 2013 (the Act) as the regulator in the development of a modern communications sector that includes telecommunications, broadcasting, radio communications, postal communications, data communication and infrastructure. 

In accordance with its mandate, the Commission hereby informs the general public that the radio stations listed hereunder are currently the only authorised providers of radio broadcasting services in Uganda.

Any radio broadcasting service provider whose name does not appear on this list must contact the Commission and resolve all outstanding compliance issues within fourteen (14) days from the date of this notice to avoid enforcement action.
