Trai's final paper on unified licence soon

January 28, 2004 20:03 IST

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India on Wednesday said it would come out with the final consultation paper on full unification of telecom services in a "couple of weeks."

"We will bring a paper on unified licence in a couple of weeks...the issues are highly complex," Trai chairman Pradip Baijal said during an open house discussion on Internet, in New Delhi.

Trai had issued a preliminary consultation paper on total unified licensing regime covering all communication services including long distance (both STD and ISD), and satellite services in November and sought written comments from all stakeholders in the telecom industry for preparation of final consultation paper.

The preliminary consultation paper, which was issued close on the heels of government implementing unified access services licence for basic and cellular services, considered issues like ambit and type of unified licensing, services area, entry fee and licence fee amongst others.
