Telecompaper - Iran’s Communications Regulatory Authority (CRA) is set to introduce an amendment to its mandatory Internet Fair Usage Policy launched in December 2017 in a move aimed at deregulating the country’s internet market, Financial Tribune reported. ISPs have a few days to submit suggestions before the proposal is ratified.
According to the news portal, following the introduction of a mandatory Internet Fair Usage Policy by CRA enforcing price caps, the ombudsman plans to give some wiggle room to ISPs and let supply and demand regulate the tariffs. While CRA is wary of relenting its oversight over ISPs pricing mechanisms, the regulator has announced that by summer’s end, price caps are to be removed for most service providers in a move aimed at deregulating the market, reported ISNA.
