Government wants one regulator to monitor telecom sector
Jan 23, 2013
KINGSTON, Jamaica, CMC – The Jamaica government says it is committed to the establishment of a single regulatory body to monitor the telecommunication sector here.
“We do intend to now have a single regulator for all aspects of telecommunications. We now have the OUR (Office of Utilities Regulation), the Broadcasting Commission and the Spectrum Management Authority as three bodies that regulate this industry,” said Technology, Energy and Mining (STEM) Minister Phillip Paulwell.
“We are determined to replace all of that with one body and that will also enable us to put in place more elaborate rules, not so much focusing on pricing issues but other areas that will encourage competition,” he said.
