Mr. Ciarán Ó hÓbáin:
ComReg has no direct role at the point of the awarding of a contract. The operator of the network is the operator of an open-access wholesale network. That operator sells services to retail providers like Sky, Vodafone, Virgin Media and Eir. It will operate in the telecoms market in Ireland and as with any other operator in that market, it will fall into a market in which ComReg has powers. ComReg's powers remain the same. No direct role is envisaged as of today.
