1. The Secretary-General may prescribe regulations that require any service provider to allow other Licensees to
have access to conduits, ducts, cabling, wire and space for switching facilities inside multi-tenanted buildings where
historic or contractual arrangements create anti-competitive conditions in respect of such access.
2. Such regulations shall prohibit any service provider from providing, installing or continuing to service inside
wiring, ducts, conduits and related facilities unless the property owner also permits other duly authorized Licensees
to have the same rights of access, in the absence of proof of an undue burden to the property-owner based on unusual
circumstances.
