I propose to take Questions Nos. 125 and 136 together.
I have no statutory function in the matter raised in the Question.
The pricing levels set by telecommunication services providers, including for mobile phone and broadband services, is a matter for those relevant service providers operating in a fully liberalised market regulated by the Commission for Communication Regulation (ComReg). ComReg is statutorily independent in the exercise of its functions in accordance with Section 11 of the 2002 Act and is directly accountable for the performance of its functions to Committees of the Oireachtas in accordance with Section 34(2) of the same Act.
Any proposal for regulatory intervention or legislative change in this regard would require careful consideration.
