PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Telecommunications (10 July 2014)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, when the Government will publish its response to the Law Commission's recommendations for reform of the Electronic Communications Code.

Asked by:
Steve Barclay (Conservative)

Answer

Since the Law Commission published its report on the reform of the Electronic Communications Code in February 2013, my Department has been considering the implications of the recommendations on network rollout and service provision to consumers. In January 2014 we published an economic analysis of the impact of various wayleave valuation regimes. A copy of this report has been placed in the House of Commons library. The analysis work is ongoing and I will make public the plans to reform the Electronic Communications Code, and respond to the Law Commission's report, in due course.
