Decree-Law no. 192/2000 of 18 August (transposing Directive 1999/5/EC of 9 March 1999) establishes the regulatory framework for the placing on the market, free movement and putting into service in the national territory of radio and telecommunications terminal equipment (R&TTE).
ICP-ANACOM is responsible for monitoring compliance with this regime and for taking action when non-conformities are detected. In this respect 66 cases were submitted to litigation.
Starting in September 2008, ICP-ANACOM participated in a European surveillance campaign of the radio and telecommunications equipment market, together with several of its counterparts from other European countries. This campaign was conducted as part of the administrative surveillance and cooperation activities pursuant to Directive 1999/05/EC, to raise awareness about the requirements of the Directive among consumers and among those responsible for placing such equipment on the market.
