TeliaSonera/Tele2 request for delay of 3G expansion
March 30, 2003
Svenska UMTS-licens AB, a joint venture of Tele2 and TeliaSonera, applied
today to the Swedish National Post and Telecom Agency for postponement
of the completion of the 3G network. Citing unforeseeable changes of circumstances,
the formal application requests amendment of licence conditions for the
licence held by Svenska UMTS-licens AB.
According to Svenska UMTS-licens AB, several circumstances underlie the
request for postponement. All such changed circumstances could not be
foreseen when the application for a licence was filed. In its application
to the National Post and Telecom Agency, Svenska UMTS-licens AB states
that it is now taking so long for decisions to be handed down in building
permit matters that the planned rate of expansion of the 3G network would
be impossible even if unlimited resources were available. In addition,
the lack of certain technical platforms precludes the establishment of
usability, functionality and technical system coordination prior to the
end of the year. Nor have suppliers of terminals been able to deliver
terminals in the volumes required for a commercial launch.
The company believe that the network under construction by TeliaSonera
and Tele2 will cover 70 percent of the population in Sweden by early 2004,
giving our network the widest coverage of any 3G network in Europe.
The group's assessment, the coverage requirements will be met by no later
than 31 December 2005, provided there are no critical changes in technological
and market developments.
In a special notice released Friday, 28 March 2003, the National Post
and Telecom Agency announced a new schedule for evaluation of 3G with
reference to the new legislation to be enacted later this year. However,
requirements concerning the rate of development have not changed.
