Investments, innovations, and consolidation in the European telecommunications market can only be realised effectively if the Digital Networks Act succeeds in maintaining and promoting competition. Implementing an access obligation through a regulation is the most effective and simplest means of directly maintaining and promoting competition.

I would like to thank the European Commission for the opportunity to express my views on the proposed Digital Networks Act (DNA). The submitted document does not provide a detailed analysis of the legislative or technical aspects of the proposal, but rather represents a general expression of support without an in-depth discussion of the potential implications of the proposed measures.
FiCom's comments are in the attached statement. However, here are FiCom's main messages: FiCom emphasizes the importance of simplifying, harmonizing, and ensuring fairness in regulation. The current regulatory framework is complex and does not adequately respond to market and technological changes. FiCom supports reducing reporting obligations and eliminating unnecessary administrative burdens.
The Unions policy objectives of consumer welfare, industrial competitiveness, security and resilience and environmental sustainability resonate strongly with the views of the 18 European or national organisations members of the Wider Spectrum Group (1).

Through its European Public Policy Committee, IEEE welcomes the opportunity to respond to this Call for Evidence. In a recent technology policy whitepaper on communications networks in the EU (https://shorturl.at/NJROl), IEEE has focused on a number of issues that the DNA aims to tackle.
According to The Shift Project, the context of the Digital Networks Act as described in the call for contributions overlooks major issues that are just as important as the need to improve the performance of the European economy or the technological transformation of digital infrastructures.
While recognizing the importance of modernization, simplification and investments in electronic communications network, any regulation must not allow the concentration of the European telecommunications market into only a few hands.

We believe that the future Digital Networks Act has the potential to significantly improve European digital infrastructure, but only if network neutrality rules are respected and consumer rights are strengthened. We warn against measures that would enable network discrimination, introduce network fees, or weaken ex-ante regulation of dominant operators.
It is high time that the EC remove the red tape which holds back European enterprise. Essentially this red tape amounts to regulation which hinders the conduct of trade and business. The European Union needs enterprise to grow its economy and support its quality of life. Consider the ECs folly with artificial intelligence (AI). In 2018, the EC said the European Union would now be a leader in AI.
