1. An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor and at least one memory including a computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to;
store a machine type communication channel access profile of user equipment configured to utilise machine type communication with a network when the equipment has not an active connection with the network, wherein the access profile is based on active user equipment contexts including serving-cell contexts of the device on the last access occasion, andsynchronise the access profile between the user equipment and the network.

Abstract
Apparatus and method for communication are provided. The method includes storing a machine type communication channel access profile of user equipment configured to utilise machine type communication with a network when the equipment has not an active connection with the network. The access profile is based on active UE contexts including serving-cell contexts of the device on the last access occasion. The access profile is synchronised between the user equipment and the network.
