European Commissioner Neelie Kroes (Digital Agenda) on Monday presented plans for a common EU approach on ultra-fast broadband and mobile networks. She announced that the European Commission has adopted a Recommendation indicating to national telecoms regulators how they should regulate third-party competitive access to ultra-fast fibre networks (also known as 'next generation access' -- NGA -- networks) that bring high-speed broadband connections to homes and workplaces.
