(c.) Experimental-station licenses (Third Schedule).
(2.) Licenses for radio stations to be erected and operated by schools, colleges, institutes, societies, and like bodies shall, in accordance with the objects in view, be classified by the Minister in accordance with this regulation.
(3.) Portable or mobile stations shall be classified by the Minister, and shall be subject to such additional conditions regarding field of operation and the like as the Minister may deem it necessary to impose.

Where a radio station is to be erected and operated for a limited time the Minister may, at the written request of any person, association, or corporation, grant a temporary permit in writing authorizing for a period to be determined by the Minister the operation of such station in accordance with these regulations, and upon whatever terms in addition to these regulations the Minister deems desirable. The fees for such temporary permits shall be in proportion, pro rata, to the annual fees, with a minimum equal to the charge for three months.
-
A license shall not be granted for any radio station the operation of which, in the judgment of the Minister, is likely to interfere unduly with the operation of any other radio station, or to be inimical to the public interest.
-
The Minister may, at his discretion, refuse to comply with an application for any class of radio station license.
-
Except with the special authority of the Minister, a license for an amateur transmitting and receiving or experimental radio station, or for an amateur operator’s certificate, shall be issued only to a British subject.
-
A license or an amateur operator’s certificate shall not be issued to any person under the age of fourteen years.

Licenses issued in accordance with these regulations shall not be transferable.

A licensee shall indemnify the Minister and the Post and Telegraph Department against all actions, claims, and demands that may be brought or made by any person or firm in respect of an injury arising from any act of the licensee or his agents permitted by the license.
-
Except with the consent in writing of the Minister or an authorized officer, a licensee shall not assign, sublet, or otherwise dispose of, or for the purpose of profit admit any other person or firm to participate in, any of the benefits of the license, powers, or authorities granted.
-
Any notice, request, or consent to be given or made by or for the Minister may be under the hand of the Secretary or other authorized officer of the Post and Telegraph Department, and may be served on a licensee by sending it by registered letter addressed to the licensee at the usual or last known place of residence or business of the licensee, and in that case the time of service shall be deemed to mean the time when, in the ordinary course of post, it would have been delivered to the licensee at that place.
-
The issue of a license under these regulations shall not relieve the licensee of any responsibility for any infringement by the licensee of any patent for an invention.
-
In cases in which an application for a license is made on behalf of an association or corporation, the application shall be signed by a principal member of the association or corporation or by some responsible official
