Response
to Ofcom statement
"We note Ofcom's announcement this morning, updating on the
next steps of the Digital Communications Review.
We put
forward proposals in July that we believe are fair and
sustainable, and that meet Ofcom's objectives without
disproportionate costs. We are implementing these proposals, and
have just appointed Mike McTighe to be the first chairman of
Openreach. We are in discussions
with Ofcom on two outstanding issues, the reporting line of
the Openreach CEO and the form of legal
incorporation.
We
will continue
to work with Ofcom to reach a voluntary settlement that is good for
customers, shareholders, employees, pensioners and investment in
the UK's digital future"
