2020-11-18 08:52:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Spain's communications and competition regulator CNMC has launched a public consultation on its proposal to update the country's wholesale fixed broadband rules (EC wholesale access Markets 3a, 3b and 4) over four years after they were introduced. Above all, the watchdog is seeking feedback on its proposal to significantly increase the number of cities deemed "competitive" from 66 to 592. If the revised regulation is approved, former incumbent Telefonica would no longer be required to provide wholesale access to its fibre-optic network in areas representing 67 percent of the Spanish population, up from 35 percent in 2016.
