Details

When accepting the European Parliament’s amendments to its common position last July the Council adopted the Directive on the application to voice telephony of the principles of open network provision (ONP). The Portuguese delegation argued against the Directive; the explanation of its vote was published in Press Release 7840/95. The Directive pursues three fundamental objectives: - determining the rights of the users of voice telephony services in their relations with telecommunications bodies; - improving access for all users, including the providers of services, to the fixed infrastructure of public telephone networks (the Directive does not apply to mobile telephones); - encouraging the provision of voice telephony services at Community level. It will offer users guarantees, in particular as regards: - connection at affordable prices and within officially determined times; - detailed invoicing; - procedures for the settlement of disputes; - special tariffs for certain social groups; - the supply of directories and public telephones; - the introduction of pan-­European numbers for free calls. As regards certain aspects (quality of service, invoicing, the provision of additional voice telephony services), the Directive entrusts the Commission with the task of ensuring that the measures taken by the Member States to achieve the objectives laid down converge at Community level and it provides for a procedure whereby the Commission, assisted by a regulatory committee, can take binding measures should that convergence be insufficient. The Directive will enter into force in a year. It includes a review clause so that before 1 January 1998 it can be adapted to the requirements of the liberalisation of the Market.

Details

Following the question by the rapporteur, Mrs READ, as to whether or not the Commission was prepared to support the compromise between Parliament and the Council on consumer protection, Commissioner PAPOUTSIS confirmed that the Commission fully espoused the new compromise in the form of Amendment No 3, which avoided the conciliation procedure and speeded up progress towards approval of the Directive. However, Amendment No 2 on the initial text of the same Article 7(1) could lead to conciliation that would be unlikely to result in approval of the Directive by the Council. Finally, as regards Amendment No 1, the Commission accepted the principle of an explanatory note on comitology in the form of a new recital.

Details

The ESC agreed with the Commission that there was a need for a directive on the application of ONP to voice telephony and for a minimum set of pan-European service aspects to be defined and supported by important service providers. It approved the articles in the proposal on special network access and interconnection as initial measures and looked forward to a future, more comprehensive set of proposals in a separate proposal for a directive. In addition, the Commission should report to the EP, the Council and the ESC no later than 2 years after the deadline for implementation (cf. Articles 31 and 32).

However, Amendment No 2 on the initial text of the same Article 7(1) could lead to conciliation that would be unlikely to result in approval of the Directive by the Council. Finally, as regards Amendment No 1, the Commission accepted the principle of an explanatory note on comitology in the form of a new recital.

  • date: 1995-11-27T00:00:00 type: Act approved by Council, 2nd reading body: CSL summary: When accepting the European Parliament’s amendments to its common position last July the Council adopted the Directive on the application to voice telephony of the principles of open network provision (ONP). The Portuguese delegation argued against the Directive; the explanation of its vote was published in Press Release 7840/95. The Directive pursues three fundamental objectives: - determining the rights of the users of voice telephony services in their relations with telecommunications bodies; - improving access for all users, including the providers of services, to the fixed infrastructure of public telephone networks (the Directive does not apply to mobile telephones); - encouraging the provision of voice telephony services at Community level. It will offer users guarantees, in particular as regards: - connection at affordable prices and within officially determined times; - detailed invoicing; - procedures for the settlement of disputes; - special tariffs for certain social groups; - the supply of directories and public telephones; - the introduction of pan-­European numbers for free calls. As regards certain aspects (quality of service, invoicing, the provision of additional voice telephony services), the Directive entrusts the Commission with the task of ensuring that the measures taken by the Member States to achieve the objectives laid down converge at Community level and it provides for a procedure whereby the Commission, assisted by a regulatory committee, can take binding measures should that convergence be insufficient. The Directive will enter into force in a year. It includes a review clause so that before 1 January 1998 it can be adapted to the requirements of the liberalisation of the Market.
