The European Commission has threatened France, a few hours ago, for a violation Arcep. Jean-Ludovic Silicani, its current chairman, is opposed to this change and joined therefore the opinion of the Commission. was accused France of wanting to appoint within ARCEP, a government commissioner. Indeed, the government wants to bring a representative on a proposal which must pass in parliament next Thursday to add an amendment. However, this body of public regulation is an independent political power. In fact, this is very different and therefore constitutes a violation of European treaties in force. France has still not responded to the request of the European Commission on 24 January.
In addition, we must not forget that the state still holds shares of one of the operators, in this case France Telecom Orange. Thus, in addition to the impartiality of an independent authority, Brussels fears a conflict of interest.
reminder, Arcep is the regulatory authority for electronic communications and postal services. Its responsibilities include everything that is managing bands.
