NOTAS:

A study prepared by WIK-Consult and ICF
"The Broadband Cost Reduction Directive (BCRD) seeks to support the deployment of high speed broadband by reducing the costs and streamlining administrative procedures for the deployment of fixed and mobile communications networks. There is a need to review the Directive, because there have been a number of technological, market and policy developments since it entered into force in 2016. In this report, we provide an overview of how the BCRD has been applied across the EU, and evaluate each of the measures as well as the Directive as a whole. We conclude that, where it has been effectively applied, the BCRD has contributed to increased fixed and wireless high-speed broadband deployment amounting to at least 100,000km of additional network roll-out between 2016-2020, reducing the digital divide and delivering the associated benefits of economic growth, greater urban rural cohesion and the delivery of social care and education. However, although the overall benefits outweigh the associated costs, some provisions have been more intensively applied than others and outcomes are variable. There is thus considerable scope to refocus and improve the BCRD to better and more efficiently contribute to the Gigabit society goals, including deployment of wireless broadband such as 5G."
