Explanatory note

These Regulations complete the implementation of articles 16, 17 and 18 of the Regulation (EU) No. 531/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13th June 2012 on roaming on public mobile communications networks within the Union (“the new Roaming Regulation”) (O.J. No L 172, 30.06.2012, p 10). The new Roaming Regulation repealed and replaced the Regulation (EC) No. 717/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27th June 2007 on roaming on public mobile telephone networks within the Community and amending Directive 2002/21/EC as amended by Regulation (EC) No. 544/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18th June 2009 (“the old Roaming Regulation”). These Regulations amend the Mobile Roaming (European Communities) Regulations 2007 (S.I. 2007/1933, “the 2007 Regulations”), which implemented the old Roaming Regulation, and follow the Mobile Roaming (European Communities) (Amendment) Regulations 2013 (S.I. 2013/822), which contained the bulk of the provisions implementing the new Roaming Regulation . Regulation 3 of these Regulations inserts new regulation 5A into the 2007 Regulations, imposing criminal penalties for breach of information requirements in line with those in section 144 of the Communications Act 2003. Regulation 2 makes a related change to regulation 4 of the 2007 Regulations. Regulation 4 makes transitional provisions.

What Parliament said about it

Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.

How Parliament handled it

Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
