Hakom - Croatian Post and Electronic Communications Agency

ZAGREB, 13 July 2016 – The Croatian Regulatory Authority for Network Industries (HAKOM) initiated a public consultation on proposals for HAKOM’s Annual Work Programme and Financial Plan for 2017. The proposal for the Annual Work Programme for the following year contains planned activities related to three markets under HAKOM’s competence: electronic communications, postal services and rail services, as well as activities aimed at improving regulatory capacity of the regulatory authority itself. The Financial Plan envisages funds for HAKOM’s activities during the following year which are financed exclusively from fees because HAKOM is not financed from the State Budget.
