(5) When conducting market analyses, NRAs should seek to ensure that regulation facilitates the widespread deployment of infrastructure as far as is economically viable and enables consumers in all geographic areas to benefit from effective competition. In order to ensure a proportional and adapted approach to varying competitive conditions national regulatory authorities may define markets on a subnational basis and/or lift regulatory obligations in markets and/or geographic areas where there is effective infrastructure competition.(geographic markets where there is effective infrastructure competition. When assessing which access obligations are most appropriate in facilitating efficient investment and effective competition, national regulatory authorities should, where practicable, take into account any different conditions existing in the different geographic areas within their Member States, whilst protecting consumer interests, including those of rural communities, and the single market.
