Market Monitoring

The requirements in the Telecommunications Amendment Act (No 2) 2006 mean the Commission now has telecommunications sector monitoring and information dissemination responsibilities.

These responsibilities include monitoring competition in, and the performance and development of, telecommunications markets. The Commission may also conduct inquiries, reviews, and studies relating to the telecommunications industry or the long-term benefit of end-users of telecommunications services in New Zealand. The Commission has to make available reports or summaries of its monitoring activities.   

Given its monitoring responsibilities, the Commission produces various monitoring reports on a regular basis. These include monitoring reports on Telecommunications markets generally and broadband performance specifically.

Industry monitoring prior to 2007 included Broadband Uptake Monitoring in 2005 and can be viewed in the archive.
