By determination of 26 June 2008, ANACOM approved a decision on the assessment of means to implement obligations maintained on the PT Group in the scope of market 12, referred to in Commission Recommendation 2003/311/EC of 11 February (wholesale broadband access).
Further to its commitment taken in determination of 3 April 2008, in which it provided its understanding on Zon Multimedia's spin-off, this decision focuses on updating determination of 3 October 2007, which approved the method for assessment of a margin squeeze in broadband offers provided by the PT Group - 1:50 contention offers.
ANACOM has specifically:
- Removed the obligation on companies of the PT Group to inform this Authority of conditions practised at retail level, including any discounts, 10 days ahead of the date on which these conditions are supposed to enter into force, this communication being now due after the conditions enter into force - that is, within at the most 5 working days after that date, attaching proper reasoning thereto;
- Updated retail costs taken into consideration in the scope of the method to assess margin squeezes and considered the existence of additional traffic revenues.
This assessment is without prejudice to conclusions that result from ongoing market analyses, namely analyses of markets 4 and 5 of Commission Recommendation on relevant markets (Recommendation 2007/879/EC of 17 December 2007).
