The Diamond Light Source (DLS) accelerator complex can be divided into three major components; a 3 GeV 561 m circumference storage ring, a 158.4 m circumference full-energy booster synchrotron and a 100 MeV pre-injector linac. This paper describes the design and presents commissioning results of the RF system for the booster synchrotron. Booster RF commissioning took place in late 2005 and early 2006 and involved the setting-into-operation of a 60 kW IOT amplifier, supplied by Thales Broadcast and Multimedia, a 5-cell copper cavity, manufactured by Accel Instruments, and a low-level RF system designed and built by Sincrotrone Trieste SCpA.

The Elettra new full energy injector will be based on a 100 MeV linac pre-injector, a 2.5 GeV booster synchrotron and two new beam transfer lines. It will replace the existing 1.2 GeV linac injector and transfer line. Full funding was finally available in 2005, which allowed to start, or in some cases to re-start, the construction activities. The status of the project will be presented in this paper, in particular the progress of the fabrication of various components, like magnets, power supplies, vacuum chambers; also the status of the construction of the building and technical plants will be given. Results of recent optimization studies will also be outlined. The commissioning of the new injector is scheduled to start in Spring 2007, while the first ELETTRA operation for user's with the new full energy injector is expected for the last quarter of 2007.
