ETNO welcomes the opportunity to provide early inputs towards BEREC’s Work Programme 2023. We believe that BEREC should in general focus on the ongoing tasks as mandated by EU legislation, as defined in the EECC, the Open Internet Regulation, roaming and intra‐EU calls, for example. We support BEREC’s commitment to establish structured cooperation mechanisms with EU institutions and other competent authorities.
Concerning the strategic priorities and carry-over projects from 2022 and potential work for 2023, ETNO will hereby provide some initial views:
ETNO strongly supports BEREC’s strategic priority 1 that aims at promoting full connectivity and access to electronic communication networks. To achieve that, a successful implementation of the EECC should be pursued and pro-competitive infrastructure sharing promoted. ETNO supports BEREC’s intention to take stock of national experiences of the implementation of the EECC and to exchange good practices in this regard. We would also encourage BEREC to include stakeholders in this exercise to capture different perspectives in the initial assessment.
