ComReg has today published a Response to Consultation, Further Consultation and Draft Decision (ComReg 19/46) to address the high wholesale origination rates for certain classes of Non-Geographic Numbers (‘NGNs’). Following ComReg’s Decision (ComReg D15/18) in December 2018, which addressed consumer issues in relation to NGNs, today’s publication addresses the wholesale side of the NGN platform. This Further Consultation sets out ComReg’s preliminary views on the wholesale rates for calls to NGNs and proposes a price control and transparency obligations for the wholesale origination rates for calls to 1800 and 0818 NGNs.
