Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

General Scheme of the Communications Regulation (Enforcement) Bill: Discussion

Mr. Robert Mourik:

Going through the court system would mean we take that report to the High Court. Now, it is a decision that is made by ComReg itself. That is a big difference. The High Court is still involved in the sense that it gives its blessing to what we have decided. It is a subtle, but important, difference that under the new legislation we will make that decision ourselves. It makes it a much stronger and potent enforcement mechanism.
