Yerevan, February 19 /Mediamax/. The transitional tariffs for primary
and secondary services of the "ArmenTel" Company will function up to
September 1 of 2007.
Mediamax reports that the given decision was made today during the
session of the Commission on Regulation for Public Services (CRPS)
of Armenia.
According to the decision, the earlier established date for filing
applications on reconsideration of the tariffs for fixed telephone
communication is prolonged from March 1 to September 1 of 2007 at
the instance of the "ArmenTel" CJSC.
The Commission has already made a decision, according to which the
application for the reconsideration of the tariffs should be presented
to CRPS not later than June1 of 2007, for the Commission to be able
to submit the proposal of the "ArmenTel" Company for inner and public
discussion.
As the Director of "ArmenTel" on Policy and Regulation Issues Haik
Faramazian told Mediamax, at present, the company, together with
the CRPS, considers the list of activities, directed to gradually
liberalizing the market, and since in November of 2007 the market
should be fully liberalized, it would be to no purpose to establish
new tariffs for a short period of time. According to the "ArmenTel"
representative, at this moment, the company carries out calculations
and it will present the newly-balanced tariffs to the Commission.
