1. A base station for a mobile telecommunications system in which at least one service is not supported by all cells, the base station comprising circuitry configured to communicate with at least one user equipment, wherein the circuitry is further configured to:
transmit minimum system information for a cell including a predefined bitmap indicating at least one service supported by the cell to the at least one user equipment, wherein the predefined bitmap includes multiple predefined bits, wherein each predefined bit indicates a unique associated predefined service supported by the cell or a unique associated predefined group of services supported by the cell such that information regarding each predefined service or group of services is m a predefined position in the predefined bitmap;
wherein the predefined bitmap includes multiple predefined bits at associated positions that together indicate all services supported by the cell.
