Communications Law Brief - Communications Regulation (Amendment) Act 2007, February 2008

  • ComReg's powers of enforcement under the provisions of the 2003 electronic communications regulatory framework have been significantly enhanced with the introduction of the Communications Regulation (Amendment) Act 2007. This Act, which amends existing communications and competition law, increases the regulator's powers of investigation, endows ComReg with a role similar to that of the Competition Authority insofar as the communications sector is concerned and creates the prospect of large financial penalties being imposed on undertakings which fail to comply with their regulatory obligations.
