INCA has submitted a response to the Openreach Monitoring Unit’s latest report, calling for a review of the existing Commitments framework to ensure it remains relevant as the UK telecoms market evolves.
The submission raises concerns about BT’s vertical integration and calls for greater operational transparency from Openreach, arguing that the current monitoring arrangements may not be sufficient to protect competition as copper retirement accelerates.
Key Points
- Review of Openreach Commitments needed to ensure ongoing relevance
- Greater operational transparency required from Openreach
