#spectrum-policy

A copper network switch off by 31 December 2035 (earlier in regions where 95% fibre coverage would be achieved, and affordable retail connectivity would be available). The Single Passport Authorisation: a single EU Member State notification procedure could be used for providing services throughout the EU. Member States would not be allowed to set additional requirements. EU satellite authorisation: a single EU autorisation for satellite services.

The UK seems to have made it the hardest of anywhere to build mobile infrastructure. Unless we remove unnecessary roadblocks and make more spectrum available, we risk missing out on a once-in-a-generation opportunity to boost growth.
