Jean Hubert, « Le cas de l'autorité de régulation des télécommunications », Revue française d'administration publique, ID : 10670/1.00806f...
The Case of the Telecommunications Regulation Authority Jean-Michel Hubert The Telecommunications Regulation Authority shows that, given the function assigned to the regulator (to enable the liberalisation of a market and its opening to competition), its responsibility takes on several forms : an institutional form vis à vis the authorities appointing its members; a functional form for users and operators ; a moral form vis à vis other actors. This responsibility must be evaluated, but also subject to jurisdictional procedure. The Authority also shows that the regulator’s independence, in regard to both public authorities and actors in the industrial and financial worlds, rests on the transparency, rigour, and fairness which condition the institution’s credibility and trustworthiness.
