The Guyana National Broadcasting Authority (GNBA) has announced its lists of compliant broadcasters for the year 2019.
According to a GNBA press release, the Authority wishes to emphasise that those listed are the only compliant broadcasters for the year 2019, and are the only broadcasters authorised to broadcast and as such those not listed are deemed to be illegal broadcasters.
The GNBA also wishes to inform that it will take legal steps within the parameters of the law, against illegal broadcasters in accordance with the Broadcasting Act 2011, Section 43 (C), which states: anyone who carries on a broadcasting service at the licensed location after the licence granted to him has been suspended, cancelled or expired commits an offence and is liable on summary conviction to a fine of one million dollars and imprisonment for one year and all machinery and equipment used, or which can be used, for broadcasting and owned by or in the possession of the person concerned is liable to be forfeited.
Therefore, the GNBA urges all non-compliant broadcasters to bring themselves into conformity with the law and to honour their obligations to the Authority.
