CAEK CONGRESS 2012 – PRAGUE. Having completed the transition to digital broadcasting, the Czech Republic is now preparing a frequency auction brought about by the digital dividend.
Speaking about the auction, Pavel Dvorak, chairman of the Czech Telecom Office (CTU), said that the regulator is undertaking the procedure in a non-discriminatory manner and has already prepared the terms under which the new player/s will operate.
He also said that many so-called “experts” have offered their services in how to conduct the auction and they had been nowhere to be seen when the public consultation on the digital dividend got under way in 2008.
