On 25 June 2026, the Council of the European Union issued a correction to document ST 9777/26 ADD 1, which contains the annex to the proposal for a regulation on authorising mobile satellite services in the 2 GHz band. The correction updates the subcodes to TELECOM 270, MI 548, ESPACE 86, CODEC 1040, and CSC 446, but does not alter the substance of the proposed regulation.

The original proposal (COM(2026) 311 annex) was received from the European Commission on 28 May 2026. The regulation aims to establish a procedure for authorising systems providing mobile satellite services using the harmonised 2 GHz frequency band, repealing Decision No 626/2008/EC. The correction is purely technical, ensuring proper document coding within the Council's records.

No prior coverage of this file exists in the last 180 days. The proposal is now set for discussion in the Council's relevant preparatory bodies, with the next step being examination by member state experts before any potential adoption.
