YEREVAN, October 29. /ARKA/. The RA Public Services Regulatory
Commission approved the form of reports to be presented by the
companies and individuals rendering IP-telephony services.

Head of the Commission’s Telecommunications Department Gevorg Gevorgyan
pointed out that the companies are to present quarterly reports top
the Commission.

He also reported that the Commission amended the order of licensing
long-distance voice communication services.

"From now on, among the documents to be presented for licensing are
the ones not only on the location of the organization, but also on
the organization’s right to the territory," Gevorgyan said.

Moreover, he said that the number of documents necessary for an
organization to be registered has considerably decreased. Ñommission
Chairman Robert Nazaryan said that the amendments will seriously
facilitate the order of licensing for IP-telephony.

At its sitting, the Commission issued IP-telephony licenses to four
Armenian companies.

On January 25 the ArmenTel Company stated its intention to disconnect
the companies rendering illegal IP-telephony services.

The companies applied to court demanding that the ArmenTel stop
putting obstacles to their economic activities and the Commission
partially revise its decision on the IP-telephony sector.
