Multi-Annual Activities Plan 2013-2015 and Budget 2013

The plan is driven by two main motivations:

• accomplishment of ICP-ANACOM's mission to engage in a regulatory and supervisory activity which promotes increasingly competitive markets and assures and protects consumer interests;
• ICP-ANACOM's concern as regards the difficult economic and financial situation that Portugal is experiencing and its impact on the sector and on ICP-ANACOM's activity over the 2013-2015 three-year period.

The plan reflects ANACOM's determination to reduce internal costs and to rationalise investments, in order to achieve a progressive reduction in the fees applied to the sector, while, at the same time, maintaining its capacity to perform effectively as an independent regulator in a scenario of increasingly demanding and complex regulation.

The publication is divided into six chapters: Executive Summary, Background, Priorities and areas of intervention in the 2013-2015 three-year period, current activities, global indicators, resource plan and financial plan.
