For information

This briefing is for all Communications Providers (CPs).

This briefing is to publish an updated version of the amendment to the Equinox offer notified on 29 September 2021. This updated version removes the requirement for CPs to provide, from July 2022, a six months in advance forecast of their WLR (PSTN) and WLR+FTTC to SOGEA orders, with a 10% +/- tolerance, in order to benefit from the exclusion of relevant orders from the Thresholds.

Further to our notification on 29 September 2021 and internal considerations on the back of CPs’ further feedback, we are removing the requirement described above. This clause was going to take effect from July 2022.

For the avoidance of doubt, the amendment itself that allows exclusion of relevant SOGEA orders remains applicable starting 1 January 2022 until 31 December 2025.

Updated terms and conditions apply and are provided here.

This briefing supports ACCN OR728.
