The way that UKCTA is organised combines the best of two worlds:

·        An open organisation that ensures all members have full and equally opportunity to be involved in development of policy issues

·        Focused committees and work streams – who are tasked with concentrating on specific areas, garnering expertise from our member companies.

There are four main standing committees:

Economic Regulation

Focuses on issues relating to significant market power (SMP) and covers such issues as Ofcom’s strategic review and the specific regulation of broadband and voice markets.

 

General Regulation

Focuses on regulatory issues of an operational nature that affect the communications industry more broadly, for example number portability and dispute resolution

 

Government Relations

Focuses on legislative and other government issues.

 

Europe

Focuses on developments in Brussels as they affect the UK market.


A further standing committee, Communication, oversees UKCTA’s external relations.
