04 May 2016

BEREC adopted a BEREC Opinion on Phase II investigation pursuant to Article 7 of Directive 2002/21/EC as amended by Directive 2009/140/EC on 4 May.

On 22 March 2016 the European Commission informed the Austrian National Regulatory Authority TKK and BEREC about its serious doubts considering that a draft measure concerning the market for wholesale call termination on individual public telephone network provided at the fixed location and the market for wholesale voice call termination on individual mobile networks in Austria would create a barrier to the internal market.

Following its role and rules BEREC adopted its opinion, stating that the expressed serious doubts by the European Commission are justified.
