".
The text adopted today, which follows on from the Commission communication on the Community’s policy on the radio spectrum, is rather contradictory in some areas as it creates the impression of bringing together ideologically opposed positions.
The report contains proposals aimed
at safeguarding public service(s); maintaining a certain, possibly high, level of national sovereignty when it comes to managing the spectrum; transferring some of the benefits arising from the new technologies to the least developed regions; recovering frequencies for the public domain where they are not used in accordance with the commitments made; protecting public interests and frequencies of strategic importance; and maintaining high levels of quality in ‘services of public or general interest’. It also makes a point, however, of welcoming the Commission’s proposal to introduce a market-based approach to the spectrum and to establish a clear legal framework providing for competition-based solutions.
Ultimately, despite its good intentions, it gives the green light to pursuing neoliberal policies and to worshipping at the altar of the market, which will jeopardise the provision of public services."@en1
