Research ICT Africa Network of researchers conducting ICT policy and regulatory research in 18 African countries across the continent in the absence of data and analysis required for evidence based policy Policy research based on series of supply and demand side studies which are triangulated with a telecommunications regulatory environment survey

Policy, regulation, market linkages

Sector Performance Review Analysis of supply side data for country studies to begin to explain their underperformance. Tension between policy-makers and research centre in South Africa - government think tank, denial of evidence - attempts to limit influence Use by other departments - Trade & Industry, Science & Technology, Presidency Long term and indirect influence - Ten Year Presidential Review of Economic Regulation of Telecommunications Technical assistance to Competition Commission in case of anti-competitive practice against the incumbent by VANS which led to largest fine at that time of $300m One leg of incumbent appeal based on bias of technical advisors rejected
