Law of Telecommunications and Information Technology

1. A facilities-based service provider shall, for the purpose of providing telecommunications or information technology services to the public, agree with the real estate owner, or a person acting in such capacity, if such provider needs to install any devices or establish or maintain telecommunications networks in public or private real estate. If no agreement is reached, the service provider may apply to the Commission to consider the expropriation of such real estate, in accordance with relevant statutory provisions. 2. If a facilities-based service provider needs to install any devices or establish or maintain telecommunications networks in a real estate to provide telecommunications or information technology services to a person residing in such real estate, the real estate owner, or a person acting in such capacity, may not demand a financial consideration from the facilities-based service provider, nor prevent him from entering the real estate, unless such prevention is justifiable and based on legal grounds. Either party may resort to the Commission to decide the dispute. 3. A facilities-based service provider shall restore the real estate to its original condition immediately upon completion of the works referred to in paragraphs (1) and (2) of this Article. 4. The Regulations shall specify the provisions relating to the implementation of this Article.
