Communication of 24 May 2018 on the future use of analogue/digital channels as provided for in RR Appendix 18
Publications › Communication -
29/05/2018
As a result of decisions adopted during the 2012 and 2015 World Radio Conferences certain channels in the maritime VHF band will no longer be available for voice communications in the future. New technologies (VDES) are now being developed for digital communications. Some implementation dates in the Radio Regulations (RR) have already passed, as a consequence of which certain manufacturers are installing maritime equipment, whereby it is not possible anymore to select specific channels. BIPT wants to inform the sector that till further notice the channels currently assigned must remain available for voice communications.

Communication by the BIPT Council of 20 December 2017 on BIPT’s monitoring in 2017 of the postal service providers
Publications › Communication -
28/12/2017
The Act of 21 March 1991 on the reform of some economic public companies tasks BIPT with the publication of a yearly report of the actions it has undertaken in order to verify that postal service providers abide by their obligations. However, considering the limited impact on the postal market of the infractions possibly recorded during monitoring, BIPT decided to cease systematically monitoring the postal service providers and to proceed to monitoring only when a complaint has been submitted. BIPT believes it would be disproportionate to commit resources to monitoring while it has not received any breach notification and consumers do not complain about the situation. Given that BIPT did not receive any complaint in 2016 about omissions or infringements of Article 148bis, §2, of the Act of 21 March 1991 on the reform of some economic public companies, BIPT did not carry out any monitoring in 2016.
Communication of 26 December 2017 regarding the guidelines implementing margin squeeze tests
Publications › Communication -
27/12/2017
Margin squeeze possibly constitutes a threat to competition on the electronic communications markets, especially as regards broadband Internet access and leased lines. Margin squeeze occurs when a vertically integrated operator with significant market power (SMP) at wholesale level positions his retail prices in such a manner that the margin between the costs of the wholesale input and the retail prices is insufficient to enable a competitor to offer similar retail products. In order to address the competition issues, the CRC and BIPT prohibited the SMP operators to apply a margin squeeze in the framework of several decisions. In order to materialise the prohibition to apply a margin squeeze, as can be imposed based on a market analysis procedure, BIPT publishes this document containing its guidelines for the implementation of margin squeeze tests. These clarify the principles according to which BIPT shall examine a margin squeeze. Earlier guidelines regarding the assessment of price squeeze laid down in its decision of 11 July 2007, shall be abolished by BIPT.
