The Communications and Information Technology Commission (CITC) has published a public consultation on “Network Neutrality Regulations Document” as part of its initiatives under the Digital Content Council, which aims for a thriving digital economy by protecting consumers, safeguarding competition, ensuring reliable services, fostering digital innovation, and promoting transparency.
The Network Neutrality Regulations Document establishes common provisions to protect consumers’ rights to access lawfully permissible content, safeguard local content providers’ non-discriminatory access to the market, promote healthy competition, foster digital innovation, and ensure the continuity of the service providers’ control over their operations.
