The Council of the European Union and the European Parliament reached on 31 January 2017 an informal agreement on a draft proposal for wholesale roaming markets in the EU. The wholesale roaming reform was the last piece of legislation required before retail roaming fees could be abolished on 15 June 2017. Together with the retail fair use policy, this proposal aims to help ensure that the end of roaming charges is sustainable across the European Union. The proposal was launched by the European Commission in June 2016. The Parliament adopted its position in November and the Council did the same in December, allowing for negotiations to start. |
