Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 19 July 2012
464 Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources if he has received any complaints regarding the quality and extent of mobile telephone services throughout the country; if the regulator is aware of such discrepancies; if it is expected that remedial action will be taken; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [36880/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraI wish to advise the Deputy that the management of the radio spectrum is a statutory function of the Commission for Communications Regulation (ComReg) under the Communications Regulation Act 2002, as amended. In accordance with this function and with its obligations under national and EU law, ComReg designs and manages the assignment of radio spectrum, which includes the imposition and enforcement of usage conditions. ComReg is independent in the exercise of this spectrum management function. Accordingly, any complaints or queries about the quality or extent of mobile telephone services should be addressed to ComReg.
