3.12. Obligation by the property owner to allow the user to connect to the public communication network Problem Identification At present, there is no suitable instrument to effectively enforce the obligation of the owner of the property to allow the user of the house to establish an internal communication line. Often times, the electronic communications operator despite a demand for his services may not establish such services due to the fact that no internal communication network is available in the house as a result of the attitude by the Community of Owners of Housing Units, or other house owners. Moreover, the law enforceability in this area is complicated by the fragmentation of the legislation; as there are two pieces of legislation (Act No. 127/2005 Coll., on electronic communications and Act No. 194/2017 Coll., on measures to reduce the cost of development of high-speed electronic communication networks). Proposed Measures To start discussion of the application of the provisions of Section 104 (16) (b) of Act No. 127/2005 Coll., as applicable, or any other provisions of relevant legislation in the context of the property owner's obligation to allow an electronic communications entrepreneur to place internal communication lines in the house if the user of the house has a demonstrable interest in using the services of the operator, which should be effectively enforced. As part of the discussion the issue of residential houses that have been divided into units and that will be governed by the rules of the Civil Code regarding the housing co-ownership must be addressed.
