171. To ask the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment how it is possible for him to lay down, as a condition of providing broadband services, under the EU regulatory regime wherein telecommunication services are commercial, liberalised and competitive, that a uniform charge is charged for broadband services by each company across the State; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I have no role or statutory function in the matter raised by the Deputy.

The pricing levels set by telecommunication services providers, including for mobile phone and broadband services, is a matter for those relevant service providers operating in a fully liberalised market regulated by the Commission for Communication Regulation (ComReg), as independent Regulator in accordance with section 11 of the Communications Regulation Act 2002.

Issues of concern to a consumer should be raised directly with the service provider and following that, may be raised with ComReg who may be contacted via www.comreg.ie or their consumer care hotline at: consumerline@comreg.ie or phone 01-8049668.
