Illustration for Telecommunications Act 2001

When a draft decision is being made about a special kind of telecommunications service, the Commission can talk to people who are interested in it. They can also have meetings with these people or hold a public hearing if they think it is a good idea for everyone. You can think of a public hearing like a big meeting where anyone can come and share their thoughts about the decision.
