Yes, many countries, not just UK, used 102 to 110 MHz or 104 to 109 MHZ for various State mobile services.
Non-Broadcast reception rules STILL vary by country:
1) Some bands not permitted in receivers at all, import or sale illegal. USA and some Moslem Countries.
2) You can have any bands but only allowed to listen to Public Broadcasts (HAM & CB and PMR446 can count as Public in most places). Marine and Aeronautical VHF listening can be illegal in some places, possibly technically the UK.
3) You can listen to anything, but must not pass on, record or repeat anything to any 3rd party other than an authorised State person (Possibly Ireland).
4) Not sure if anywhere allows publication of ANY non-Public broadcast.
