EU law
The Austrian telecommunications law is strongly characterised by Community law requirements. In particular, on the basis of the provisions on competition of the EC Treaty (Article 81 [formerly Article 85], Article 82 [formerly Article 86] and Article 86 [formerly Article 90]), the EU Commission or the European Parliament and the Council have issued a great number of directives, regulations and decisions that contribute to implementing the Common Market for telecommunications services. An overview of the most important legal sources for the telecommunications sector is given below.
