07/03/2002 - Final legislative act
PURPOSE : to implement an internal market in electronic communications networks and services through the harmonisation and simplification of authorisation rules and conditions in order to facilitate their provision throughout the Community.
COMMUNITY MEASURE : Directive 2002/20/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the authorisation of electronic communications networks and services (Authorisation Directive).
CONTENT : this Directive shall apply to authorisations for the provision of electronic communications networks and services.
The Directive provides a general authorisation applicable to networks and to electronic service communications: Member States shall ensure the freedom to provide electronic communications networks and services, subject to harmonisation and simplification of electronic communications rules and conditions for the authorisation of networks and services cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States and can the conditions set out in this Directive.
To this end, Member States shall not prevent an undertaking from providing electronic communications networks or services, except where this is necessary for the reasons set out in Article 46(1) of the Treaty.
Decisions on rights of use shall be taken, communicated and made public as soon as possible after receipt of the complete application by the national regulatory authority,
within three weeks in the case of numbers that have been allocated for specific purposes within the national numbering plan and within six weeks in the case of radio frequencies that have been allocated for specific purposes within the national frequency plan.
The Commission shall periodically review the functioning of the national authorisation systems and the development of cross-border service provision within the Community and
report to the European Parliament and to the Council.
In order to arrive at a single date of application of all elements of the new regulatory framework for the electronic communications sector, it is important that the process of national transposition of this Directive and of alignment of the existing licences with the new rules take place in parallel. However, in specific cases where the replacement of authorisations existing on the date of entry into force of this Directive by the general authorisation and the individual rights of use in accordance with this Directive would lead to an increase in the obligations for service providers operating under an existing authorisation or to a reduction of their rights, Member States may avail themselves of an additional nine months after the date of application of this Directive for alignment of such licences, unless this would have a negative effect on the rights and obligations of other undertakings.
ENTRY INTO FORCE : 24/04/2002.
IMPLEMENTATION : 24/07/2003.
