🇬🇧 English

This decision allows three radio authorizations in the ARCOM Lyon area to be renewed for five years without opening a new call for applications. It covers Alto Radio in La Châtelard, Impact FM in Lyon, and Radio Espace in Sainte-Foy-l’Argentière, subject to successful international frequency coordination where needed. The affected broadcasters must agree the terms of their convention with ARCOM Lyon by 15 December 2026. If they do not, their authorizations cannot be renewed through this simplified route, and ARCOM Lyon will make a final decision six months before the current authorizations expire.
