Industry: Email Alert RSS FeedTELECOMS: POLAND & BELGIUM HEADING TO ECJ.
Tech Europe, February, 2008
Poland will have to explain itself to the European Court of Justice because it does not give its telecoms regulator enough independence. Despite positive signals sent by Prime Minister Donald Tusk's new government, the European Commission has pointed out that Warsaw still controls a large share of telecoms operators and "the president of the Council of Ministers has unlimited discretion to dismiss the head of the national regulator therefore undermining its effectiveness".
Belgium is also being taken to court for not having correctly transposed the universal services directive (2002/22/EC) by imposing unbalanced charges on operators - through the calculation of net costs - in its financing mechanism for social tariffs.
