Amended Interconnection Conditions From Telecom Italia
On July 24, 1998 Telecom Italia published its new Interconnection Offer, as requested by the Decree of the Ministry for Communications issued on June 10, 1998.
The former version of the offer, dated July 1997, had been judged unsatisfactory under antitrust principles, as adversely affecting competition. The offer appeared in particular not comprehensive of call termination in areas where new operators were not connected to the local transit stations switches. In particular, to ensure national interconnection, new operators had to be connected with all general switches of the territory, which practically eliminated from the market any small or regional-sized operators.
The new offer issued by Telecom Italia indicates interconnection tariffs for network interconnection for the provision of voice services and the use of ISDN services, directory and emergency calls, Calling line Identification, Freephone and other premium services.
