Details

Since the Electronic Communications Code was created in 1984, digital communications have changed the world. Digital technology is now integrated into everyday life and citizens see fast broadband and reliable mobile phone signal as a basic need.

바카라 사이트 is putting forward this package of legislative reforms to improve the case for private investment in digital infrastructure. This will help communications providers to extend coverage and improve connectivity, even in the hardest to reach areas.

The reforms include a major change to the rights communications providers have to access land by moving to a 바카라 사이트˜no scheme바카라 사이트™ basis for valuation, similar to the system used for utilities. Communications providers will also have new rights to upgrade and share their equipment, which will allow future technologies to be rolled out quickly.

These reforms, along with other changes in the new Code, will make it easier and more cost effective for digital communications providers to deploy and maintain the UK바카라 사이트™s digital infrastructure.
