The Malta Communications Authority has published the first reference interconnection offers, known as RIOs, submitted by Maltacom plc and Vodafone Malta Ltd.

An RIO consists of the technical, commercial, procedural and financial terms and conditions for providing interconnection to other telecommunications operators and in particular new entrants to the market.

Interconnection allows different telecommunications operators to establish voice and data transmission connections between each other. Subscribers on one telecommunications network are therefore allowed to communicate with subscribers on another network.

The MCA said that after a comprehensive review of the two RIOs it will communicate its feedback to the operators.
