All, Friday last week, Telecom.paper reported on a draft direction by Irish ComReg to allow access to the new ’076’ number range for VoIP services: http://www.telecompaper.com/index.asp?t=a&i=68293&n=730 === Ireland’s Commission for Communications Regulation (ComReg) has issued draft Directions to allow access to the new ’076’ number range for VoIP services. Last October, ComReg made the 076 phone number range available to telecoms providers. To date, telecoms providers have not succeeded in negotiating terms that would allow 076 numbers to be connected to the wider telecoms network. ComReg is intervening to assist industry put in place, a preliminary framework for prices and settlements. Specifically, ComReg’s draft directions propose two price points to facilitate telephone calls to VoIP numbers. ComReg will accept responses to the draft directions from interested parties up until the 3 March. === It wasn't possible to get that confirmed by ComReg's website, though.
