A method for allowing a user equipment to determine whether Service Area Identities (SAIs) of a list of SAIs are current SAIs or neighboring SAIs by: receiving a list of SAIs from a network node, where the list is indicative of Service Areas capable of providing the broadcasted service to the user equipment and comprise at least one current SAI and at least one neighboring SAI; identifying, in the list, the SAIs as arranged into two distinguishable groups, where a first group comprise the at least one current SAI and a second group comprise the at least one neighboring SAI, and distinguishing, based on the arrangement of the list, current SAIs from neighboring SAIs. A method is also disclosed for arranging a SAI list into the two distinguishable groups by a network node.
