This is mainly because some local governments, condominium associations, or management companies evaded the requirements of the legislation.<\/p>\n<p>In Ukraine, more than three years ago, there was an adoption of Law \u21161834-VIII, important for telecommunications operators, which was to establish a clear, fair, and transparent methodology for determining the amount of infrastructure access charges for the entire telecommunications market.<\/p>\n<p>However, according to the EBA member companies, currently, the operators cannot fully develop telecommunication networks, as some local governments, utility providers, and condominium associations ignore and do not comply with the requirements of this Law. Thus, some balance holders generally refuse to enter into contracts for access to infrastructure or offer to enter into them on unfavorable terms, or with the introduction of conditions not provided by law.<\/p>\n<p>The refusal of certain market participants to comply with the Law distorts competition and creates artificial barriers for the implementation of infrastructure projects by telecommunications operators, which limits the opportunities for consumers of electronic communications services. To resolve this situation, <a href=\"http:\/\/w1.c1.rada.gov.ua\/pls\/zweb2\/webproc4_1?pf3511=69988\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">draft law \u21164118<\/a> was developed, which should comprehensively eliminate gaps in the current legislation, which allow balance holders to evade its implementation.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"blockquote-custom-big animate-block animate-block--before animate-block--to-right\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"quote-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/new.eba.com.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Tetiana_Shyrochenko_1.png\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"name\">Tetyana Shyrochenko<\/span>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"position\">EBA Committees Coordinator<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<blockquote class=\"blockquote-custom\">\n\t\t\t\tThis document is designed to regulate the interaction between operators and the balance holders of objects, to clarify certain provisions of current legislation.
