WITH THE INTRODUCTION of a third player in the local telecommunications space, Government has given advance notice that changes are coming to the Telecommunications Act.

The indication came from the Minister responsible for Energy and Telecommunications in the Prime Minister’s Office, Senator Darcy Boyce, as he addressed attendees recently at the launch of Canadian wireless company, Ozone Wireless Incorporated’s flagship store and corporate offices at Manor Lodge Complex, Warrens, St Michael, recently.

Boyce revealed that the act would be amended to address service standards as well as landline service.

However, one of the main changes expected will deal specifically with the acquisition of telecom companies by others within the same space. (SDB Media)
