EU Telecom Reforms Rejected by European Parliament

Posted by Kara Reeder May 6, 2009 1:01:26 PM

Computerworld reports that the European Parliament has rejected wide-ranging reforms of European Union telecom laws because of one clause that would have required a court ruling before an individual's Internet access could be cut.

 

The Parliament did support the other reforms, including the creation of an E.U.-wide telecommunications regulator, a plan for distributing radio spectrum among emerging mobile technologies, and enhancing the privacy rights of citizens.

 

According to the Financial Times, the telecom package, which required an all or nothing vote, will likely take “at least six months” for an agreement to be reached.
