Official Gazette-Issue 41- Addendum - 23/7/2002 4) Public Telecommunications Services Providers shall comply with all international treaties and bilateral agreements relating to international accounting arrangements, as well as with any rules adopted by the TRA concerning such arrangements where international services are provided pursuant to an international accounting rate framework. 5) Disputes arising between Public Telecommunications Services Providers over Interconnection terms and practices shall be resolved by arbitration in equity unless otherwise specified by the Interconnection agreement. The TRA shall set the rules and procedures for the arbitration of disputes resulting from Interconnection agreements. Article 30: Competitive Markets 1) In determining whether a Public Telecommunications Service Provider has Significant Market Power, the TRA shall take into account the extent of his influence in the Lebanese market. Regulatory arrangements resulting from such a determination shall be limited to the relevant region. 2) The TRA may review any existing or proposed agreement or any contractual relationship between a Public Telecommunications Service Provider with Significant Market Power and his affiliates, or between it and another Public Telecommunications Service Provider, in order to ensure that such relationships or agreements do not restrict competition without ensuring a corresponding increase in benefits to market stakeholders. The TRA may review all other agreements that may have an anti-competitive effect on the Lebanese telecommunications market and take suitable measures to remedy the resulting situation. 3) The TRA shall ensure that Public Telecommunications Service Providers with Significant Market Power do not abuse their market position. The TRA may prohibit such Service Providers from obtaining additional Public Telecommunications Services Licenses, require such Service Providers to comply with regulations, tariffs or accounting rules, or take any other precautionary measures as deemed appropriate to secure a competitive market. The TRA may initiate such measures before or after any agreement or contractual relationship is proposed or any abuse of Significant Market Power has occurred in order to preserve the development of competitive telecommunications markets. 20
