New Telecom Legislation in Bermuda

The Bermuda Government has issued a consultation paper on new legislation that seeks to "fundamentally reform the regulatory regime applicable to the electronic communications sector". The consultation paper is available here and the draft legislation is available here. The Bermuda Government is proposing to enact two statutes, one to create an independent telecom regulatory authority and another to create an integrated regulatory framework for all electronic communications.

It is good to see that, after five years of consultation, Bermuda is finally getting close to modernizing its telecom legislation.
