Updates, clarifications and corrections

Update 6 November 2020 – further consultation on proposed remedies

We have today published a further consultation (PDF, 494.8 KB) on some changes to our proposed remedies, which we have made following responses to our January 2020 consultation.

The closing date of this consultation is 8 December 2020. We expect to publish our final decision relating to the wholesale fixed telecoms market review by 31 March 2021.

Update 30 September 2020 – further clarification

In response to a query from Openreach, we have today published a clarification (PDF, 171.9 KB) on our proposed approach to setting prices for dark fibre services.

Update 12 May 2020 – follow-up to clarification published on 1 May 2020

In response to a stakeholder's query, we have today published a follow-up clarification (PDF, 159.2 KB) to that published on 1 May 2020 in relation to our Wholesale Fixed Telecoms Market Review consultation.

Update 1 May 2020 – further clarifications

Update 30 April 2020 – extended deadline for responses

The original deadline for responses to these proposals was 1 April 2020, but with the coronavirus pandemic bringing significant challenges to the telecoms industry, we announced on 24 March that all consultation deadlines had been suspended until further notice.

Since then, we have remained in close contact with industry. Many companies have adapted to new ways of working and have a clearer picture of their capacity to contribute to this review. We are therefore confident that stakeholders should be in a position to finalise their responses shortly.

We are now accepting responses to the consultation up to 22 May 2020, including any new information which organisations that have already responded wish to provide.

Update 10 March 2020 – clarification on Area 2
