Subscription Broadcasting Services Market Inquiry

This inquiry started in 2016 when the Authority published a notice of its intention to conduct an inquiry into the state of competition in the subscription broadcasting services sector.

The Authority noted that despite having issued five (5) licences in 2007 and further two (2) licences in 2015 in the subscription television broadcasting services Market, three (3) licensees had commenced operations.

The Authority also, noted that two (2) of the licensees faced sustainability challenges while the others have not yet launched services.

Due to the Authority's commitment and mandate to ensure that markets are effectively competitive, ICASA commenced the inquiry into the subscription television broadcasting services Market.
