These Regulations set out the process by which the Office of Communications (“OFCOM”) shall designate the persons to whom broadband universal service conditions are to be applicable, in exercise of its powers under section 66 of the Communications Act 2003 (c 21) (the “Act”).
Regulation 3 provides for the procedure that OFCOM will adopt to propose and confirm the designation of a person as a universal service provider. Regulation 3(2) provides for certain information that OFCOM must provide in its proposals for designation. Regulation 3(3) provides for the timeframe in which to make representations on the proposed designation. Regulations 3(5) and 3(6) provide for what OFCOM must do in light of such representations. Regulation 3(7) provide for OFCOM to confirm the designation.
Regulation 4 sets out what OFCOM must do in reviewing such designation from time to time.
A full regulatory impact assessment of the effect that these Regulations will have on cost to business is available to the public from OFCOM’s website at http://www.ofcom.org.uk or from the OFCOM library at Riverside House, 2a Southwark Bridge Road, London SE1 9HA.
