Amendment 231 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 139
(139) In situations where undertakings are deprived of access to viable alternatives to non-replicable assets up to the first distribution point, national regulatory authorities should be empowered to impose access obligations to all operators, without prejudice to their respective market power. In this regard, national regulatory authorities should take into consideration all technical and economic barriers to future replication of networks. The mere fact that more than one such infrastructure already exists should not necessarily be interpreted as showing that its assets are replicable. The first distribution point should be identified by reference to objective criteria. Under special circumstances, national regulatory authorities should be able to impose access to active network components used for service provision on such infrastructure. Such circumstances may occur when access to passive elements would be economically inefficient or physically impracticable. National regulatory authorities should not impose obligations beyond the first concentration or distribution point when access is already provided at a technical level that allows the access seeker the same functionality and ability to control and tailor its services and costs in a similar way as if they would have enjoyed access through symmetrical regulation. In order to safeguard sustainable competitive outcomes for the end users, it must be ensured that the largest possible share of the value chain of any end user product is subject to competition.

The access conditions imposed may include specific rules on access, transparency and, non- discrimination and for apportioning the coststhe price of access, which, where appropriate, are adjusted to take into account risk factors.When imposing access regulation beyond the first concentration or distribution point, national regulatory authorities may under special circumstances impose active or virtual access to such wiring and cables.
