DG Information Society and Media has launched
a public consultation seeking stakeholders' views on the
functioning/effectiveness of the current Roaming Regulation. This consultation
forms a key part of the Commission's review of the amended Roaming Regulation
(EC) 544/2009 which expires on 30 June 2012. The Commission must complete its
review and report on the functioning of that Regulation to the European
Parliament and Council by no later than 30 June 2011. Among the key questions
raised in this consultation are whether regulatory intervention will be
necessary for roaming charges post June 2012 and, if so, what is the most
appropriate approach to such regulation. The output from the consultation will
therefore complement the Commission's ongoing monitoring of developments in the
roaming market, including the workshop on roaming held in March 2010, as well as
the input from BEREC and the studies being undertaken by the Commission.
