I voted for the resolution on the forthcoming World Conference on International Telecommunications (WCIT-12) of the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), and the possible expansion of the scope of International Telecommunication Regulations. It is important to ensure that all amendments to these regulations are compatible with the EU
and that they help promote the internet as a true public space where human rights and fundamental liberties, such as the freedoms of opinion and association in particular, are respected. They must also respect the principles of the free market, net neutrality and entrepreneurship. I support the proposals to maintain the current scope of the ITRs and the current mandate of the ITU, and I support the view that ITU, or any other single, centralised international institution, is not the appropriate body to assert regulatory authority over either internet governance or internet traffic flows. I call on the Member States to prevent any changes to the ITRs which would be harmful to the openness of the internet, net neutrality, the ‘end-to-end’ principle, universal service obligations, and the participatory governance entrusted to multiple actors."@en1
