By means of this application, the providers will transmit to ANCOM statistical data on the electronic communications market, the annual financial reportings, the notifications on the activation of the numbering resources or of the technical resources, the annual report on the use of the numbering resources, the list of localities where electronic communications networks and services at fixed locations are effectively provided, copies of the access and interconnection agreements, respectively copies of the agreements of access on properties, statistics on the requests for ensuring connection and access to a fixed location, to the public telephone network, which could not be satisfied under commercial conditions, or certain documents which the providers designated as having significant power on specific markets have the obligation to submit to the Authority. Furthermore, the providers will send electronically to ANCOM other documents and information the Authority requests from them with a view to exercise its legal duties.
All these documents and information will be exclusively sent via the online application, using a certified electronic signature, starting 1 July 2013. By way of exception, certain documents and information are to be provided electronically as of 1 January 2014.
On their turn, the providers may choose to receive only electronically certain documents from the Authority, in accordance with the legal provisions in force.
