In March, OFCOM published a declaration on the SLAs
and on the Openreach SLGs improving the structure by
means of which the performance of the service is gauged
and the compensation for breach of contract is made to
the customers concerned.
The debate continued during the year, participated in by
OFCOM, BT and sector operators, on the formalities by
means of which the principles of equivalence must be
applied to access products and new generation networks.
Work continued so as to establish what will be required
in order to guarantee the transposition of the prescriptive
norms to the new technologies and the protection of the
competitive context.
