Electronic Communications Committee

We use our expertise to reduce spectrum scarcity and improve sharing and access to spectrum to enable the introduction of new technologies, whilst protecting existing ones. The Electronic Communications Committee (ECC) brings together 46 countries to develop common policies and regulations in electronic communications and related applications for Europe, and to provide the focal point for information on spectrum use. Its primary objective is to harmonise the efficient use of the radio spectrum, satellite orbits and numbering resources across Europe. It takes an active role at the international level, preparing common European proposals to represent European interests in the ITU and other international organisations. The ECC’s approach is strategic, open and forward-looking, and based on consensus between the member countries. It applies its expertise in partnership with all stakeholders, the European Commission and ETSI to facilitate the delivery of technologies and services for the benefit of society.
