- Main decisions of the federal court
If the parties negotiating the access conditions are unable to reach agreement within three months, the Federal Communications Commission (ComCom) determines the conditions for access to the equipment and services of market-dominant providers on application from one party (Art. 11a LTC).
Access agreements must be submitted to OFCOM two weeks after signature at the latest (art. 67 DTS). The same applies to amendments and cancellations.
