In Austria, the regulator has advertised a third layer of coverage, organised nationally but with the possibility of regionalisation. Also invited are applications for regional, second-layer ensembles in the Bundesländern, with the exception of the capital, which has had a Layer 2 ensemble in operation since 2019. The closing date for applications is October 2nd, 2023. However, should an applicant be able to prove by July 31st 2023, that the proposed third layer of coverage, with its expected capacity for fifteen services, would be insufficient to meet demand, particularly for "must-carry" services, the regulator may expand the offer to include a new, national fourth layer. The advertisement specifically mentions the services of the public-service broadcaster ORF in its hypothesis. A clearer nudge from a regulator to a broadcaster is hard to imagine.

The French regulator has authorised a nine-month pilot of DAB+ in the overseas département Martinique. According to the decision, published on the Arcom website but not yet found in the Journal Officiel, five audio services are expected to be broadcast from the outset. As Wohnort reported at the time, the then regulator, the CSA, previously authorised tests in Martinique in 2021. As the new announcement describes the pilot as the first time that DAB+ will have been transmitted, the 2021 decision must not have led to actual transmissions. This is believed to be the first time that DAB+ will have been broadcast in the Caribbean. A similar pilot was also authorised on the Indian Ocean island département Réunion earlier in 2021, but Wohnort has no information about whether those took place either.

It also states that expressions of interest have been received for the Alnwick & Morpeth area that was revoked in October. The forthcoming Round Five advertisements will therefore include the Isles of Scilly, Alnwick & Morpeth as well as the Welsh Valleys area that had already been scheduled for re-advertisement.
