Description

Opened consultation on Draft Telecommunications Law including Unilateral Conduct Regulation

On 27 October 2022, the government opened a consultation on the draft Telecommunications Law until 27 December 2022. The draft includes specific unilateral conduct regulations for "telecom wholesale service providers". Specifically, if they hold a dominant market position, cross-offsetting the services is prohibited. Additionally, telecom wholesale service providers are required to set fair prices in a way that ensures no favorability over one's own services as compared to other service-buying enterprises. Service providers also need to consider the pricing conditions set by the specialised telecom management agency when setting and changing prices.
