The Council of ICASA has resolved to grant a 14-day extension in respect of submissions into the Draft Code for Persons with Disabilities Regulations published on 12 June 2020. The new date for written submissions is now the 14th of August 2020.

ICASA would like to correct the misconception created by the National Community Radio Forum (NCRF) and assist them to understand the role of the Authority as it relates to the Universal Service and Access Fund (USAF) collections.
