Proceeding contribution from Michael Connarty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on European Global Navigation Satellite System.


European Global Navigation Satellite System

To underline my point, that system is reliant on GPS provided as a free service by another country. That is an interesting model. I do not envisage it being provided free of charge in future when those who use it have in a sense been captured because they use it. We should think about the Microsoft model if we wish to understand what monopoly means.
