Future spectrum

Spectrum regulation should aim for attaining harmonized and unrestrictive regulatory conditions for 5G and 6G systems.

Network regulation

Network regulation should support long term stable rules that stimulate investments and usage, foster infrastructure competition, and uphold the principle of technology neutrality.

Principles of spectrum licensing

A wave of 5G auctions and renewals of existing licenses are expected over the next five years.

Net neutrality

Policy makers should support an open and non-discriminatory internet and a framework for net neutrality that provides consumers with access to the content, applications, and services they want, while promoting continued investment, experimentation, differentiation, and innovation.

Data protection

Data protection regulation should define neither the technology nor the means used for the collection and processing of the personal data.
