EU Council unable to agree on roaming proposal

2015-06-15 09:00:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) The EU council at its meeting 11 June failed to reach agreement on what remains of the Connected Continent legislation, covering roaming and net neutrality. The differences with the European Parliament appeared again too great. The member states aim to take a step in roaming and proposed a technical plan adjusting the retail price cap to a lower level. A small amount of volume from domestic price plans would also be allowed for customers to 'roam like home' when elsewhere in the EU. Opinions on net neutrality are still widely diverging, with discussions in recent months unable to reach a compromise. The Dutch government said there is no support for a ban on price differentiation for services. The council will meet again 25 June, to discuss a broader range of political and economic issues. The Commission will also give a presentation on its plans for the Digital Single Market. As ministers will be present at the next meeting, this creates a new deadline for the EU. The Commission hopes to reach an agreement on the two subjects before the summer holidays.
