First Price Regulation Agreement

The Telecommunications Acts in each Member State gives the National Telecommunications Regulatory Authority the power to regulate the prices for telecommunications services. This means they have the power to approve the rules and guidelines for how the tariffs of regulated telecommunications services are to be determined or changed by a service provider whose tariffs are regulated.
