Sectoral Plan
ComReg contributed to the Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources’ Sectoral Plan 2006 – 2009 under the Disability Act 2005 including the following action points:
- Access to Communications Services:
ComReg will continue to work with industry, including those not covered by Universal Service Obligations, to promote and encourage service providers to ensure that services are accessible for people with disabilities.
- Availability of information on services accessible by people with disabilities:
ComReg, following consultation with interested stakeholders, will seek to ensure that information on the availability of accessible services will be widely available.
-
Billing:
ComReg will work with service providers to develop effective billing arrangements for people with disabilities.
The three main action points mentioned above have been worked into the Forum on Services for People with Disabilities.
