Faster Cable Internet Access: New Rules for Providers
New regulations aim to speed up the process of obtaining permits for building and expanding cable networks. This means internet providers can reach new areas faster, potentially increasing broadband availability for citizens and fostering greater market competition.
Key points
Local authorities will have a maximum of 120 days to decide on granting a cable network construction permit. If no decision is made within this period, the permit will be deemed granted.
All denials must be in writing, justified, and publicly available, increasing process transparency.
The provisions aim to eliminate delays and roadblocks in internet infrastructure expansion, which could lead to faster internet access for residents.
