SUMMARY
The Botswana Communications Regulatory Authority ["BOCRA"] is pleased to provide its submission to the open consultations on Over The Top services. BOCRA is the national communications regulator in Botswana established by an Act of Parliament, thus it is a parastatal. BOCRA regulates the ICT, postal and broadcasting sectors.
BOCRA believes that like any new development, OTTs bring with them benefits and challenges, and that while the benefits will be happily embraced, it is equally important to somehow embrace the challenges as well. OTTs have brought the world under one global umbrella, it is only when we appreciate that OTTs are an international phenomenon whose challenges especially requires and calls on us to begin a collective international voice and action that we can tackle the challenges OTTs bring.
