ComReg’s Enforcement Functions: Discussion

Ms Helen Dixon:

We have 157 staff. We have just recently received sanction for an additional 55 staff, which will allow us give full effect to the powers we discussed earlier. We have now been assigned by the Government additional functions that will come on stream later this year. We will be putting in a request for sanction for additional staff and skills in order to deliver on those functions. ComReg is divided into a number of regulatory divisions. There is a market framework division, which deals with radio spectrum issues. It was the division that led on the running of the auction in 2022 to license new spectrum.
