Details

The rapporteur wanted up-to-date legislation compatible with the rapid technological developments, totally open access to services and the avoidance of monopolies by applying objective criteria. Commissioner Van Miert welcomed the generally positive tone of the report on the Commission’s draft communication. As regards the transitional period, the Commissioner gave a few examples (in particular the interconnection tariffs of ‘Deutsche Telekom’ which he considered were too high) of problems which the Commission had been forced to take into account. Finally, the Commissioner assured Parliament that the final text of the communication would be available in the autumn.
