According to the above-mentioned conceptual model for the determination of fees, the administrative costs, defined under paragraph 4 of article 105 of the ECL, which constitute the tax base of the annual fee due for engaging in the activity of electronic communications networks and services provider, were determined based on a three-year average - 2008, 2009 and 2010, calculations for the first two years being based on real figures for the respective financial years, and those for the last one being based on the budget figure, since the financial year was still underway. It should be mentioned that the 2010 budget corresponds to the first year of the 2010-2012 Activity Plan, on which ICP-ANACOM’s Advisory Board delivered an opinion and which was approved by the member of the Government competent in electronic communications matters.
The amount of provisions for ongoing legal actions was determined based on the average for the last five years, with the years 2006 to 2009 being based on real figures, and 2010 being based on the figure included in the budget for that year.
Table 1 contains the calculation of costs considered for the purpose of collecting fees due for engaging in the activity of electronic communications networks and services provider for 2010:

It is important to note that the result of the settlement of the fee did not correspond to the full value of the costs incurred in by ICP-ANACOM with the regulation costs as regards the activity of electronic communications networks and services provider indicated in Table 1 (31.526.163 €), since it was necessary to observe the transitional two-year period provided for this fee in article 6 of Administrative Rule number 1473-B/2008. Thus, for the second year of the transitional period (2010), the following formula was applied: (T2 (year 2010) x 0,667) – 4990 €), where Ti corresponds to the value of the fee due by bodies of step 2, thus the overall amount settled was 20.910.703,22€.
