EU warns 11 more members on telecom competition
Simon Taylor writes in InfoWorld:
The European Commission, the European Union's overall telecom regulator, launched its latest bid on Thursday to get its member states to ensure fair competition in the telecom sector.
The Commission sent letters to 11 of the bloc's 25 member states, warning them that unless they take action to properly police their telecoms sectors, it may have to take them before the European Court of Justice, which could levy large fines on each government until they address the failings.
The letters were addressed to the Czech Republic, France, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia and Finland.
Most of the letters concern failure to offer number portability, which acts as a disincentive for users to switch operators. This was the case for the Czech Republic, Latvia, Poland and Slovenia.
