Подчертава необходимостта да се предвиди достатъчно дълго време за осъществяване на прехода и следователно призовава за постепенен подход в тази област; заема становището, че въздействието върху по-малките мрежи - особено местните безжични мрежи - за които понастоящем не се прилагат изисквания за лицензиране, трябва да бъдат взето предвид, както и че следва да се насърчава всеобщият достъп до широколентова технология, особено в селските райони;
Emphasises the need for sufficient time for transition and calls, therefore, for a step-by-step approach in this field; is of the opinion that effects for smaller networks - especially local wireless networks - for which no license requirements currently apply must be taken into account and that universal access to broadband, especially in rural areas, should be promoted;

Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and Commission.
During the past decades technological progress has started to change the quality and the notion of communications, signalling the beginning of a new era of communication and information diffusion based on powerful electronic superhighways.

Fibre optics, semiconductors, broadband integrated networks, intelligence networks, UMTS and multimedia broadcasting have been major achievements of the last decades.

The deployment of many of these technologies is dependent on the existence of enough spectrum for the players that would like to enter the market.

As spectrum is needed in all electronic communications the demand is very high and at present there does not appear to be enough spectrum width available to meet that demand.

From a technical, regulatory, administrative, political and economic point of view, the relation between access and distribution has been very complex.

Up to now the system used for spectrum allocation has operated at four levels (international, European, inter-regional and national), with the result that six to eight years elapse between the request for allocation and the assignment of a frequency.

However, the rapid development of technology and the convergence of telecommunications, media and electronic devices have created a dynamic environment for which the traditional approach is too slow and inflexible to deliver the spectrum access needed.

Key to a more efficient use of spectrum is the principle of service and technology neutrality.

When access to spectrum is without restriction on the service to be offered on a particular bandwidth or the technology to be used for the delivery of that service then spectrum-dependent innovation is able to flourish.

Firstly, there will remain a role for the traditional administrative "command and control" approach to spectrum allocation but it needs to be made quicker and more efficient in order to keep pace with technological change.

It is important that no country or region is shut out of the development of pan-European services: the digital dividend must not become a digital divide.

Secondly, there could be more unrestricted use of spectrum.
Secondly, there could be more unrestricted use of spectrum.
Where spectrum is unrestricted it remains unallocated and a technological approach is taken to issues of interference i.e. the responsibility for avoiding interference lies with the users of the frequency who therefore must each come up with a design solution to avoid interference from other users and technologies.

The unlicensed approach has tended to date to be used for frequencies on which short-range devices operate, but there is scope to extend its use.

Thirdly, spectrum rights, which are already traded within some member states, could be traded across Europe.

The Commission has suggested that a substantial amount of spectrum, perhaps one third of the spectrum below 3 GHz, could be tradable.

With this balanced approach, although a substantial amount of spectrum would still be managed according to traditional methods, the unlicensed and tradable elements would facilitate a more dynamic and efficient use of spectrum.

As allocation of spectrum rights is the prerogative of member states and the frequencies used for various services differ across the Union, the rationalisation and alignment of spectrum which would be necessary for pan-European trading presents a challenge.

The rapporteur is of the view that the solution lies in freeing more spectrum up for trading rather than less.

If only a very limited amount of spectrum trading is proposed then difficult negotiations may result in which no current spectrum-using sector (broadcasters, telecoms, the military ...) is keen to release spectrum for trading.

By contrast, wider spectrum trading would open up the possibility of all sectors recognising the market value of the spectrum resource which they hold.

Spectrum users would be less likely to sit on unused or little used spectrum if it was a tradable asset with a value.

A freeing up of spectrum for secondary trading would allow industry to move towards a European alignment and rationalisation of spectrum by market means.

This would be easier and quicker than relying on administrative harmonisation alone and could free European industry to respond rapidly to innovation and make the development of a Europe-wide market for spectrum-using products much easier.

However, the freeing up of spectrum raises a number of issues for existing users and therefore needs to take place within a very clear legal framework.

If certain frequencies are freed up without conditions on the service or technology to be used then it will be necessary to define the responsibilities of the new holders very rigorously in order to avoid users of neighbouring bands suffering from interference.

It would seem prudent to draw up from the beginning a clear legal framework incorporating properly defined spectrum rights and dispute resolution mechanisms.

Broadcasters in particular express concern that different technologies operating adjacent to their broadcasting bandwidths are likely to cause significant interference.

It may prove to be the case that technical constraints and interference concerns make it impossible for some frequencies to be used differently in the first instance.

But given the pace of 21 st century technological change – for example, iPods and WiFi were virtually unknown six years ago – the likelihood is that new technical solutions will make interference less of a problem in the longer term.

Already, developments over the horizon such as software defined radio (SDR) and cognitive defined radio (CDR) open up the future prospect of interference-free close co-existence of different spectrum uses.

Therefore the legal framework should be future-proofed in anticipation of greater technical flexibility becoming possible.

There rightly exists across Europe a strong political commitment to maintaining services of public and general interest ranging from universally available linear media services to military, security and emergency services and services benefiting disabled people.

Just as a more flexible approach to spectrum management is vital for commercial innovation, so it is important for a more dynamic and responsive delivery of services of public interest.

A clear distinction needs to be drawn between the fixed and firm commitment to the provision of services of public and general interest and the method of delivery of those services, which needs to become flexible and responsive to technological change if it is to remain efficient.

Contrary to the notion that a freeing up of spectrum access might endanger services of public and general interest, the rapporteur is of the opinion that a less sclerotic approach to spectrum could be of immense benefit in facilitating the delivery of innovative high-quality public services.

A balanced and efficient approach to spectrum management will maximise the social and economic benefits arising from its use, encourage the development of innovative services, deliver jobs and growth in accordance with the Lisbon agenda and make European industry a global leader in electronic communications.
