Contents What are the ITRs Plans to revise the ITRs WCIT and its preparatory process Highlights of discussions Issues relevant for Asia and Oceania

One of the four treaties of the ITU What are the ITRs (1/5) One of the four treaties of the ITU Constitution Convention Radio Regulations International Telecommunications Regulations

What are the ITRs (2/5) Successor to a long line of treaties, going back to the original ITU Convention of 1865 Current version adopted in 1988 in Melbourne, Australia, by the World Administrative Telegraph and Telephone Conference (WATTC) Previous version was two treaties, Telegraph Regulations and Telephone Regulations (1973)

What are the ITRs (3/5) Establish general principles relating to the provision and operation of international telecommunication facilitate global interconnection and interoperability underpin harmonious development and efficient operation of technical facilities promote efficiency, usefulness, and availability of international telecommunication services

What are the ITRs (4/5) Contain provisions relating to Purpose and scope Definitions International Network International Telecommunications Services Safety of Line and Priority Telecommunications Charging and Accounting Suspension of Services Dissemination of Information Special Arrangements In some cases, related or similar provisions are found in the Constitution or Convention

Article 9: Special Arrangements What are the ITRs (5/5) Article 9: Special Arrangements Enabled use of private leased lines for data networks Facilitated expansion of the Internet A related (but less detailed) provision is found in Art. 42 of the Constitution

Plans to revise the ITRs (1/3) Unchanged since 1988 Significant changes since then: Technologies Privatization Liberalization Bilateral agreements between operators regarding tariffs

Plans to revise the ITRs (2/3) Discussions regarding review and revision at Plenipotentiary Conferences 1998 2002 2006

Plans to revise the ITRs (3/3) Review processes: 1999-2000: Expert Group 2004-2005: Council Working Group on the ITRs 2007-2009: Expert Group to Review the ITRs (ITR-EG)

WCIT and its preparatory process (1/2) PP Resolution 146 (2006) Need consensus on what could appropriately be in treaties, standards, development activities Important to ensure that the ITRs are reviewed and, if deemed appropriate, revised Defined a review process (ITR-EG and WTPF) Called for World Conference on International Telecommunications (WCIT) in 2012

WCIT and its Preparatory Process (2/2) World Conference on International Telecommunications (WCIT): 2009-2012: Council Working Group to Prepare the 2012 WCIT (Council resolution 1312) – CWG WCIT12 Council 2010 has set dates and agenda (Council resolution 1317) 2012: WCIT

Highlights of discussions (1/3) Are the ITRs still relevant? Do provisions belong elsewhere? Constitution/Convention ITU-T Recommendations Should provisions be added to cover new issues?

Highlights of discussions (2/3) Three main views up to 2010: Provisions are still valid and required, no change needed or desirable Most provisions are obsolete or are already covered adequately in other ITU instruments New provisions are needed, to cover new areas and to strengthen certain areas Greater flexibility appears to have emerged in 2010

Highlights of discussions (3/3) Examples of new issues: Security Misuse of numbers Application of certain ITU-T Recommendations No consensus on any of these, or indeed on whether any new issues should be included

Issues that have been raised Do provisions belong elsewhere? Constitution/Convention ITU-T Recommendations How to make it easier to revise in the future? Emergency telecommunications services and telecommunications for disaster relief Taxation Provisions regarding accounting (Abrogate? Revise?) What are your thoughts?
