Measures taken with a view to compliance with the rules on telecommunications equipment

When OFCOM suspects that a trader is selling equipment which is not in conformity, it goes to the location to carry out a check on the equipment which is being placed on the market. During this inspection, samples of the telecommunications equipment which is being checked are taken away to allow their conformity to be checked. While it is on the spot, OFCOM may forbid the sale of inspected equipment if they are flagrantly not in conformity.
