EU Platform Mapping Broadband services Seminario: "Mappare la banda larga: Miglioramento dei servizi e innovazione" Roma 21 Maggio, 2018 Autorità per le Garanzie nelle Comunicazioni (AGCOM) Sala Angrisani – Via Isonzo 21/B, 00198 RM h. 9.15 – 13.15 Guido Acchioni: DG CONNECT B5 Investment in high capacity networks
Why mapping at EU level? • Current Commission capacity to map in Europe is a combination of various sources. • Annual report on Broadband Coverage in Europe in measuring progress with respect to the broadband coverage targets set out in the Digital Agenda (ad-hoc studies). • At national and regional levels, mapping is increasingly based on dedicated IT systems - often offering online platforms open to the public. Key part for the development of the NGN plans (ex-ante conditionality in the framework of ESIF) and individual broadband rollout projects. Drawbacks: • Data is meaningful and reliable only at national/EU level, and for overall policy purposes; • Data does not support programming or comparison at regional/local level • Data not useful for state aid purposes (not prospective investments) • Data not sufficient to measures VHC performance (only download speeds) • … 3
Mapping broadband services: towards an EU integrated platform The Broadband mapping project (SMART 2014/0016) aims to : aggregate measurements of connectivity of quality of service (QoS) and quality of experience (QoE) connectivity. (TUV Rheinland Consulting will develop this IT project until 2018). facilitate information exchange and benchmarking between Member States. The portal will be complementary to the mapping activities of EUMS and EEA (Ministries, NRAs, regional agencies, users and consumers organisations etc.) and will also gather private crowdsourcing QoS/QoE actions. A Technical Review Panel made up of representatives from various data providers and international experts assists the European Commission. Its includes representatives from MS (IT, IE, FR), from NRAs (AGCOM, ANCOM,UKE) and from BEREC Working Group on Network Neutrality (Ofcom, BNetzA) BEREC Mobile Coverage WG (ARCEP). 4

Strategic objective for 2025 1. Gigabit connectivity for all main socio-economic drivers such as schools, transport hubs and main providers of public services as well as digitally intensive enterprises. 2. All urban areas and all major terrestrial transport paths to have uninterrupted 5G coverage. 3. All European households, rural or urban, will have access to Internet connectivity offering a downlink of at least 100 Mbps, upgradable to Gigabit speed.
Mapping: a policy, investment and transparency tool The proposed Code requires regulators to map network investment intentions, and enables public authorities to seek investors in under-served areas: • allows more joined-up policy, identifying private investment opportunities or public investment needs. • allows regulators to increase transparency about network deployment plans and to provide investors with more predictability and protection. • ensures that less densely populated communities benefit from better Internet connectivity. • promotes a consistent approach to coverage obligations (in spectrum licences), to small-cell deployment and to network sharing, thereby stimulating 5G deployment and rural connectivity. • ………. • ……….
At EU level mapping also relevant for: • Developing Broadband plans: in 2016, the Commission called on Member States to: • review progress of their National Broadband Plans and update them with a time horizon of 2025, • in line with the strategic objectives set in this Communication and the 5G Action Plan. • Programming, implementing and monitoring the impact of EU funds: ESIF (ERDF and EAFRD) • The EC approval of NGN Plans constitute an ex-ante conditionality to access ESI Funds (2014-2020)
VHC Networks definition in the Code: as at 8/5/2018 • 'very high capacity network' means either an electronic communications network which consists wholly of optical fibre elements at least up to the distribution point at the serving location or an electronic communications network which is capable of delivering under usual peak-time conditions similar network performance in terms of available down- and uplink bandwidth, resilience, error-related parameters, and latency and its variation. • Network performance can be considered similar regardless of whether the end-user experience varies due to the inherently different characteristics of the medium by which the network ultimately connects with the network termination point.
New Code; Article 20: Information request to undertakings as at 8/5/2018 "….national regulatory authorities, and, …other competent authorities, shall have the power to require those undertakings to submit information concerning: • - future network or service developments that could have an impact on the wholesale services that they make available to competitors, as well as • - on electronic communications networks and associated facilities which is disaggregated at local level • - sufficiently detailed to enable the geographical survey and designation of areas in accordance with Article 22 ……….." • …. "Business confidentiality shall not prevent the timely sharing of information between the competent authority, the Commission, BEREC and any other competent authorities concerned for the purposes of reviewing, monitoring and supervising the application of this Directive. " •
Article 22: Geographical surveys of network deployments (NOT AGREED YET) • National regulatory authorities and/or other competent authorities shall conduct a geographical survey ……and shall update it at least every three years. • This geographical survey shall include • a) a survey of the current geographic reach of such broadband networks within their territory, as required in particular for conducting the tasks under this Directive required by Articles : • - 62 (Procedure for the identification of markets) • - 65 (Market analysis procedure) • - 81(Availability of universal service) , • - 66 (Imposition, amendment or withdrawal of obligations) • and for the surveys required for the application of State aid rules.; • This geographical survey may also include a forecast of up to three years forecast of the reach of broadband networks, and more particular of very high capacity networks ….. • …..This forecast shall include information on planned deployments by any undertaking or public authority, in particular to include of very high capacity networks and significant upgrades or extensions of legacy broadband networks to at least 100 Mbps download speeds. •
Article 22: Geographical surveys of network deployments (NOT AGREED YET/Text may change) • The reliability of such forecasts shall be decided by the national regulatory authority. • The information collected … shall be at an appropriate level of local detail and shall include sufficient information on the quality of service and parameters thereof. • The relevant authorities may designate an area with clear territorial boundaries where, on the basis of the information gathered and any forecast prepared …where….no undertaking or public authority has deployed or is planning to deploy a very high capacity network or has to significantly upgrade or extend its network to a performance of at least 100 Mbps download speeds, or is planning to do so. • National regulatory and/or other competent authorities shall publish the designated areas.
Article 22: Geographical surveys of network deployments (NOT AGREED YET/Text may change) Relevant authorities running the survey will make data available to authorities with responsibility for: • the allocation of public funds for the deployment of electronic communications networks, • the design of national broadband plans, • defining coverage obligations attached to rights of use for radio spectrum and for • verifying availability of services falling within the universal service obligation • ensuring the same level of confidentiality and protection of business secrets as the originating authority and inform the parties which provided the information. Results shall also be made available to BEREC and the Commission upon their request and under the same conditions. • Data not subject to confidentiality shall be made directly accessible online to allow reuse (in line with Directives 2013/37/EU). • The responsible authority will also make available a tool enabling end-users to determine the availability of connectivity in different areas, (with a level of detail which is useful to support their choice in terms of connectivity services of operator or service provider.
Article 29 : Penalties and compensation (NOT AGREED YET/Text may change) Member States shall lay down rules on penalties, including fines and predetermined or periodic penalties, or compensation, to prevent infringements of • national provisions …..or • Legally binding decision issued by the Commission, national regulatory or other competent authority pursuant to this Directive, and shall take all measures necessary to ensure that they are implemented. The penalties regarding incorrect or misleading information: • must be appropriate, effective, proportionate and dissuasive and • may only be imposed if such information was provided knowingly or negligently and the operator: a) has subsequently deployed a very high capacity network …or… has significantly upgraded or extended its network to a performance of at least 100 Mbps download speeds, in contradiction with its previously stated intentions, and cannot provide an objective justification; (b) has not deployed a network according to plans submitted, without an objective justification. •
