In a method of providing scheduling information for use at the mobile radio communications network device for UL resource allocation at the mobile radio communications device between a plurality of Radio Bearers, wherein each Radio Bearer has a Prioritized Bit Rate and at least one Radio Bearer comprises a Guaranteed Bit Rate Radio Bearer. The mobile radio communications device estimates the average bit rate transmitted for each of the plurality of Radio Bearers over a time period and generates rate control data responsive to determination of one or more of the following parameters: for each Guaranteed Bit Rate Radio Bearer whether a maximum Bit Rate has been reached; for each Guaranteed Bit Rate Radio Bearer whether the Prioritized Bit Rate has been reached; whether one or the Guaranteed Bit Rate Radio Bearers has been served during the said time period; whether a total estimated data rate for at least one Guaranteed Bit Rate Radio Bearer does not exceed an Aggregate Maximum Bit Rate value; for each Non-Guaranteed Bit Rate Radio Bearer whether the Prioritized Bit Rate is achieved; whether at least one Non-Guaranteed Bit Rate Radio Bearer is served during the said time period.
