Aiming to prevent anti-competitive behavior between telecom operators in the Omani market, the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) on Sunday amended some rules keeping the requirements in the public interest.

In a statement, TRA said, it has amended some provisions of Resolution No. 70/2013 regarding the rules for post-market regulation (anti-competitive behavior).

Based on the decision, Article (4) of Post Market Regulation Rules (Anti-competitive Actions) has been replaced by the following text that reads as follows: “The authority, on its own initiative or based on a complaint submitted by the concerned parties, may initiate investigations to ensure that the actions or activities of the licensee prevent or limit competition or provide facilities that are contrary to competition or violate prior regulatory obligations, in accordance with the procedures for adjudicating competition complaints contained in the attached annex.”
