    Abstract: An apparatus is provided, comprising at least one processor, and at least one memory including computer program code, wherein the at one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to receive a first QoS information for a limited capability UE and a second QoS information for a non-limited capability UE, wherein the first and second QoS information relate to a MBS broadcast or multicast session available on both the limited capability UE and the non-limited capability UE, determine, based on the received first and second QoS information, whether a common frequency resource associated with the limited capability UE can be used for receiving the MBS broadcast or multicast session by both the limited capability UE and the non-limited capability UE, provide a first tunnel for the transmission of the MBS broadcast or multicast session to the limited capability UE and provide a second tunnel for transmission of the MBS broadcast or multicast session to the non-limited capability UE if it is determined that the common frequency resource associated with the limited capability UE cannot be used for receiving the MBS broadcast or multicast session by both the limited capability UE and the non-limited capability UE, and provide the first tunnel for the transmission of the MBS broadcast or multicast session to the limited capability UE and for the transmission of the MBS broadcast or multicast session to the non-limited capability UE if it is determined that the common frequency resource associated with the limited capability UE can be used for receiving the MBS broadcast or multicast session by both the limited capability UE and the non-limited capability UE.
