Illustration for Telecommunications Act 2001

When the Commission is making a decision, they think about who it affects. If the Commission believes people outside of the main groups involved have a big interest in the decision, they must talk to those people. The Commission can either ask for their thoughts or hold a meeting to discuss the matter before making a decision under section 51.
