As for Multiplex A, the decision was earlier, but the same (from http://stakeholders.ofcom….pdf ):
"Our decision is therefore as follows:
We do not intend to require the applicant to furnish a supplementary
technical plan under section 16 (a) (i) of the Act, in particular in relation to coverage obligations on Multiplex 2 and Multiplex A;
We do not intend to require further proposals from the licence holders of Multiplex 2 and Multiplex A under section 16 (a) (ii) of the Act with respect to promoting or assisting the acquisition of digital equipment; and
We intend to set a zero PMR rate for the duration of the licence, using AIP as the sole pricing mechanism starting from 2014.
...
AIP (Administered Incentive Payment) fees charged for access to spectrum to reflect its value. AIP applies in bands for which significant demand exists for that spectrum either in its current use, or for an alternative radio service, and acts as an incentive to users to use their spectrum as efficiently as possible."
