An outline is given below of the cumulative values of numbers assigned nationally since 2008, with a reversal in the reduction in numbers in 2011. This is due to stabilization in the situation resulting from the introduction of numbering fees in 2009 and the absence of corporate mergers and dissolutions during this period. The increased volume of non-geographic numbers allocated in 2012 results from the emergence of new MTS providers.
The number of short numbers allocated in 2009 was amended from two to four.
