end-users a possibility for:
1. access to non-geographic numbers and use of services provided through such numbers within
the European Union;
2. access to all numbers provided within the European Union, regardless of the technology and
devices used by the undertaking, including the numbers in the national numbering plans of Member
States, as well as those from the European Telephony Numbering Space and Universal International
Freephone Numbers.
(2) In case the called subscriber has for commercial reasons limited access to the subscriber
number thereof to calls by parties located in specific geographic areas, Paragraph (1) shall not apply.
(3) The Commission may require the undertakings providing public communications networks
and/or services to block, on a case-by-case basis, access to numbers or services where this is justified by
reasons of fraud or misuse and to require that in such cases the undertakings providing electronic
communications services withhold the relevant interconnection and/or other service revenues.
(4) In case the number referred to in Paragraph (3) is from the numbering plan of another Member
State of the European Union or is a number from the European Telephony Numbering Space or a
Universal International Freephone Number provided to an undertaking providing public electronic
communications services within the territory of that Member State, the Commission shall interact with
the relevant regulatory authorities of that Member State for taking the steps referred to in Paragraph (3).
(5) The Commission may also take the steps referred to in Paragraph (3) upon a justified request
by a regulatory authority or another state body of a Member State of the European Union.
