Contract prevention mechanisms - shared database

By determination of 8 March 2007, approval has been given to the opinion on the functioning conditions of the shared database provided for by article 46 of the Law of Electronic Communications. This opinion was issued following the project submitted by the mobile telephone service providers, TMN - Telecomunicações Móveis Nacionais, Vodafone Portugal - Comunicações Pessoais and Optimus - Telecomunicações.

ANACOM concluded that it saw advantage in the costs for accessing and using said database by the beneficiary companies / operators being adjusted in such a way that these costs do not inhibit use of the database by new electronic communication operators.
