A true enabling information society should enable everyone to be a participant, through access to technology and knowledge, and with freedom of choice.
A true enabling information society should enable everyone to be a participant, through access to technology and knowledge, and with freedom of choice.
The advent of the information society brings with it new responsibilities for those who provide information and communication, and is creating new ways for citizens, particularly for vulnerable population groups (elderly people, people with disabilities, those living alone or in social difficulties, etc.) to exercise their rights, which enable them to benefit to the full from the spread of new ICT.

The draftsman is of the opinion that by these measures consumers’ and users’ confidence in electronic communication services would be further strengthened; that would result in a better exploitation of these services and therefore would contribute to the development of a ubiquitous information society.

Развитието на ефективно, глобално информационно общество изисква универсална доставка на широколентова безжична технология, за което е необходима допълнителна подкрепа на равнището на държавите-членки и Общността.
The development of an efficient, ubiquitous information society calls for the universal provision of broadband and wireless technology, which requires further support at Member State and Community level.
Следователно, при предстоящото преразглеждане на универсалната услуга, Комисията следва да предложи включването на широколентовия интернет в обхвата на универсалните услуги.
Therefore the Commission should, in its forthcoming redefinition of universal service, propose that broadband internet be included within the scope of universal services.

Клиентите следва да бъдат също така информирани по подходящ начин относно правото си да бъдат включени в базата данни на указателя и да им се даде реална възможност за упражняване на това право както при сключването, така и при изпълнението на договора.
Equally, customers should be properly informed of their right to be included in directory databases and granted an effective opportunity to exercise that right both initially and during the contractual relationship.
Следователно, при подаването на заявка за услугата потребителите следва да бъдат изрично попитани дали желаят в базите данни на указателя да бъде включена съответна информация и как да стане това.
Hence, customers should be expressly asked at the moment of requesting a service whether and how they wish relevant information to be included in directory databases.
Тъй като съществуват механизми за включване на информация в базите данни на указателя, без тази информация да се разкрива на потребителите на справочните услуги, което улеснява предоставянето на по-всеобхватни справочни услуги, без да се накърнява правото на неприкосновеност на личния живот, предоставящите достъп оператори следва да предлагат на потребителите тази възможност.
Since mechanisms are available for including information in directory databases without that information being disclosed to users of directory services, hence facilitating more comprehensive directory services without compromising privacy, customers should also be offered this option by access operators.
Directory Enquiry services are a critical service for disabled and elderly users and for users in general (as recognised by the Universal Service Directive).

It is necessary to put in place mechanisms which guarantee the exercise of the right of end-users to be included in directory databases in these ways and thereby ensure the comprehensiveness of directory services in accordance with Recital 11 of the Universal Service Directive.

Когато липсва ефективна конкуренция, националните регулаторни органи следва да използват корективните мерки, предвидени в Директива 2002/19/ЕО, за гарантиране, че достъпът на потребители до определени видове съдържание, услуги или приложения не се ограничава и, например, че не се налагат неразумни условия за достъп на едро.
Where there is a lack of effective competition, national regulatory authorities should use the remedies available to them in Directive 2002/19/EC to ensure that users’ access to particular types of content , services or applications is not unreasonably restricted and, for instance, that unreasonable wholesale access terms are addressed .
Currently unregulated access operators charge exorbitant prices for connecting directory enquiry calls and also impede the ability of the directory enquiry providers to set their own retail prices (see, for instance, page 41 of the Commission’s new Markets Recommendation).

Националните регулаторни органи следва да могат да приемат подходящи стандарти за качество като при това следва да се консултират с [xxx] и Комисията за да се гарантира съответствие между подходите на националните регулаторни органи.

(18a) Directory enquiry services should be, and frequently are, provided in conditions of competition, pursuant to Article 5 of Commission Directive 2002/77/EC of 16 September 2002 on competition in the markets for electronic communications networks and services 1 .
Следва да се въведат мерки за доставка на услуги на едро, като се гарантира включването на данните на крайните потребители (както на фиксирани, така и на мобилни телефони) в базите данни, икономически ефективното предоставяне на тези данни на доставчиците на услуги и осигуряването на мрежови достъп при икономически ефективни, разумни и прозрачни условия, за да се гарантира, че крайните потребители се възползват изцяло от конкуренцията, с цел окончателно премахване на регулирането на дребно на тези услуги.
Wholesale measures ensuring the inclusion of end-user data (both fixed and mobile) in databases, the cost-oriented supply of that data to service providers and the provision of network access in cost-oriented, reasonable and transparent conditions should be put in place in order to ensure that end users benefit fully from competition, with the ultimate aim of removing retail regulation from these services.
