Alterations to RUO - public consultation until 9 October


By decision of 5 August 2009, approval was given to the draft decision on the amendments to the reference unbundling offer (RUO), as well as its submission to the prior hearing of interested parties, pursuant to articles 100 and 101 of the Code of Administrative Procedure (CAP) for a period of 30 days.

Likewise, a decision was made on the respective notification to the European Commission and national regulatory authorities of the other Member States pursuant to paragraph 1 of article 57 of Law number 5/2004 of 10 February.

In light of the issues raised by the Commission with respect to the compatibility of the prior hearing procedure set forth in articles 100 and 101 of the CPA with the consultation and transparency mechanisms defined in article 6 of the Framework Directive (and transposed by article 8 of Law number 5/2004), and considering the interest expressed in an extension to the prior hearing, it has now been decided:

(a) to launch, under the terms of paragraph 1 of article 8 of Law number 5/2004 of 10 February, a public consultation on the draft decision on the amendments to the reference unbundling offer, closing on 9 October 2009, whereby comments should preferably be sent by e-mail to: "consulta_orall@anacom.pt";

(b) to extend the period provided for the prior hearing of interested parties, pursuant to articles 100 and 101 of the Code of Administrative Procedure, until the same date of 9 October 2009.
