| Call-Back |
|
The World Telecommunications Standardization Assembly 04 (WTSA-04)
adopted Resolution 29 on alternative calling procedures on international
telecommunication networks. In that Resolution, the sovereign right of
each country to regulate its telecommunications, as expressed in the
basic instruments of ITU, was reaffirmed. In this regard, each country
has the right to authorize, prohibit or regulate call-back practices.
National regulatory measures must be respected by other countries within
the limits of their own legislation, and the recognized operating agencies
(ROAs) and administrations concerned must communicate and collaborate.
To facilitate this collaboration, a draft guideline has been prepared
under which ITU is to collect information once a year on the positions
adopted by each country in respect of call-back practices within its
territory and disseminate the findings by the most effective method.
Administrations and ROAs receiving this information must take all
necessary steps to prevent call-back practices from being supplied to
countries which prohibit them.
The TSB circulated the questionnaire each year from 1996 to 2005 and the results were disseminated by a TSB Circular. Study Group 3 decided, at its 12-16 September 2005 meeting, to discontinue the collection and publication of this information (see 8 of COM 3 – R 5 and 10.3.4 of COM 3 – R 2 of the 2005-2008 Study Period).
