<p>The current target is to release 500 MHz of spectrum below 5 GHz by 2020, of which
62 MHz has already been released. Ofcom expects to auction up to 190 MHz of additional
spectrum at 2.3 GHz and 3.4 GHz in this financial year (2015/16).</p><p>The Productivity
Plan published on 10 July announced that the Government had implemented a new model
for the centralised management of public sector spectrum. Under this model a new Central
Management Unit based in the Shareholder Executive will propose a new target for public
sector spectrum release to the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, along
with a plan and timetable for achieving it.</p><p> </p><p>Terms of reference outlining
how this new model works will be published on <a href="http://www.gov.uk/" target="_blank">gov.uk</a>
in due course.</p>
