networks for Internet access services as of 25 May 2016 (current state without
taking into account planned investments), CTO
In relation to the facts stated above, it is necessary to note that mapping of address point
coverage can be methodologically biased by the fact that any building with a street number
and a registration number, i.e. including buildings not intended for living. The mapping
process outlined in the first step and the colouring of individual BSUs are thus to be seen as
indicative only, also reflecting the fact that the protection of investments applies to current
and planned NGA networks regardless of whether the available NGA connection is situated
in a place intended for living or not. To identify the intervention areas, the places with
addresses located in white BSUs will be adjusted, if necessary, based on the publicly
available and relevant information, so that such places that are not covered under the OP
EIC objectives are excluded.
4.1.2 Public consultation
A key aspect of the provision of public aid through specific objective 4.1 of the OP EIC is a
verification of the mapping results in public consultation, the objective of which is to reduce to
a minimum any disruption of competition with existing providers and with entities that have
prepared investment plans for the following three-year period, and to fix the “white”, “grey”
and “black” areas obtained as a result of the mapping. The mapping results that will be
associated with the following determination of areas of intervention and the call within the
framework of the OP EIC, will be publicly available on the website of the MIT as well as
through a link from the website of the CTO. Each entity will be able to comment on the colour
of the given area through a collective, or if necessary, individualised public consultation.
The collective public consultation on the areas of intervention will take place always before
each individual call of specific objective 4.1 of the OP EIC. Such public consultation will
include a definition of the areas of intervention that will be proposed by the OP EIC Managing
Authority. The proposal for the areas of intervention will be based on the output of the
consultation concerning NGA mapping.
