Mobile Phones: Telecommunications
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Olympics, Media and Sport what his policy is on the European Commission's proposal for regulation of charges for data roaming on public mobile communications networks in Europe.
- Answer
-
The Department wants to see the third roaming regulation successfully concluded in time for implementation from 1 June this year. We want to see price caps at values that will continue to reduce roaming costs for consumers but at the same time provide sufficient incentive for new players to enter the market, therefore providing a sustainable competitive market place for the future.
