BEREC Report on the public consultation on equivalent access and choice for disabled end-users. One of BEREC’s strategic priorities set out in its 2015 Work Programme is ‘Empowering and Protecting End-Users’. Under this principle, BEREC recognises the need to take account of the interests of vulnerable consumers, including those with disabilities.

In this context, BEREC envisages a fresh look at the provision of electronic communications services for disabled end-users across Europe, in particular focusing on the promotion of equivalent access and choice. BEREC published a draft report on equivalent access and choice for disabled end-users on 2nd of October 2015, opening a public consultation that lasted until 30th October.
