10th Global Symposium for Regulators (GSR10) - 10 to 12 November 2010  
gsr logo Consultation process
 

The consultation process under the theme: A new ladder of regulation: best practices for enabling open networks has now been closed.

The GSR10 consultation focuses on identifying best practices in designing, building out and managing open access networks and you are invited to provide contributions on the following topics:

  • Defining open access: making sense of the various concepts;

  • Open access to networks: what policy and regulatory tools to enable opening up access to network facilities (i.e., international fiber networks, “essential” or “bottleneck” facilities, other networks) without harming investment and innovation?

  • Open networks: how to ensure that every citizen has access to the benefits of ubiquitous broadband networks (i.e., through policies for universal access to broadband, transition to New Generation Networks (NGN), leveraging on the digital dividend)?

  • Open Internet: how to handle traffic management over increasingly congested networks while applying fair rules?

  • Open access to content: what role for regulators in bringing public services online (i.e., e-government, e-education, e-health) and creating demand for such services?

  • Challenges to open networks (i.e., cyberthreats, unforeseen aspects of the Information Society, disputes, regulatory efficiency and consistency across services and networks): what strategies?

 

The inputs are being coordinated by the GSR10 Chairman Mr. Ndongo Diao, Director General of the Regulatory Authority for Telecommunications and Post (ARTP) of Senegal.

 

The best practice guidelines are to be presented and finalized during GSR10 by the regulators and policy makers participating in this event.
