I have no function in regulating pricing of services in the telecommunications market.

The regulation of telecommunications operators, including regulatory issues surrounding pricing is the responsibility of the Commission for Communications Regulation (ComReg) in accordance with the requirements of the Communications Regulation Act 2002 and the Regulations which transpose the EU Regulatory Framework for Electronic Communications.

Given the above position, I have forwarded the correspondence referred to in the Deputy's question to ComReg for investigation and on completion of any investigation to contact the subscribers concerned directly.
