Abstract

The aim of the article is an attempt at interpreting amended Art. 172 of the Telecommunication Act. The amended provision entered into force as of 25 December 2014 and has been arousing a lot of doubts as to practical consequences of the changes. The article presents an analysis of the objective and subjective scope of amended Art. 172 of the Telecommunication Act accompanied by an extensive analysis of European laws. It also indicated practical consequences of amendments for entrepreneurs, who have to adjust themselves to the new regulation.
