Study on Radio Spectrum Policy Programme: taking stock and discussing future scenarios

The goal of the study is to enable policymakers to take comprehensive and informed decisions in the field of radio spectrum management within the European Union.

The final report could serve as a basis for an impact assessment that would be required, in accordance with the Better Regulation Guidelines, to accompany any possible future legislative initiative aiming to enhance the EU sovereignty in radio spectrum management, foster the single market perspective and further promote the efficient use of radio spectrum, including addressing future spectrum needs. In this context, the report describes the current state of application of the Radio Spectrum Policy Programme (collecting information, evaluating completed actions, identifying obsolete provisions, and assessing the ongoing relevance of key objectives and principles). The report focusses on identifying and describing problems, refining objectives, establishing a baseline scenario, formulating policy options, and assessing their potential impacts, costs, and benefits. The assessment incorporates both quantitative and qualitative analyses, aligning with the Better Regulation Guidelines. The report outlines arrangements for post-implementation monitoring and evaluation, ensuring the policy's intended results are achieved.
