1 Doc No. WG - 8 REPORT OF WORKING GROUP 8: COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES PRICING AND INDUSTRY ANALYSIS 1.0 Introduction On 2 nd 04 th December 2013, the EACO Working Group 8 held its first meeting at the EACO headquarters in Kigali Rwanda. 2.0 Summary of Decisions 2.1 Review of Terms of Reference of the Working Group Members reviewed the Terms of Reference for the working group as prescribed by the 20 th EACO Congress and noted the following: 1. Members agreed that the scope of their study would focus on the communications services in the area of Telecommunications, Broadcasting, Postal and Courier. 2. Members agreed to reorganize the ToRs into three key thematic areas, namely; (i) Studies and Market Analysis (ii) Reporting and (iii) Coordination. All items in the working group 8 ToRs were therefore reorganized and captured under the above three key thematic areas. 3. The secretariat proposed that Regional Roaming be incorporated in the ToRs of the working group 8. This proposal follows the findings and recommendations of EALA (November 2013) on the high roaming prices in the region. The proposal was adopted by the working group. 4. Proposed removal of elements related to Network Security and Privacy which were included in the ToR item IV from the scope of the work of the working group. It was observed that the working group 5 is best suited to deal with these elements as they fall under its scope. A liaison will be sent to working group 5 regarding this matter. 1
2 2.2 Action Plan An action plan was prepared for the work of the working group as per the attached Annexure. 3.0 Conclusion 1. The EACO secretariat should sensitize member states and operators to have greater participation in the working group meetings. 2. EACO secretariat should consider; while sending invitations for the working group meetings; to copy individual members of the working groups. 3. The elements related to Network Security and Privacy, which were included in the ToR item IV, are removed from the scope of the work of this group. 4. EACO secretariat to involve the working group 8 during the design and planning stage of the development of the databank at EACO headquarters 5. Based on the concerns raised by the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA) members, the EACO secretariat should initiate deliberate efforts to conduct a study on regional roaming charges. As the Assemblies would be meeting in Tanzania in June, the next physical meeting of this working group will take place before the assemblies. The exact date will be communicated to all members 4.0 Decision Expected/Request That the Executive Committee takes note of the deliberations of working group 8 and the agreed action plan of the group.
