No.37 of CRC meeting, dated on 29th June, 2013.
This regulation document has been delivered to the service
providers and came into force on August, 1st of 2013.
Based on recommendations of international consulting

2 e-ccr PROJECT 38
What we did in the frame of E-CRC project in 2013
Under the upgrade and development of the structure of li-cense
of business entities being implemented by the Govern-ment

stages. Within this project, organization’s activities, regulato-ry
actions on ICT and postal sector, issuance of all kinds of
licenses including service licenses, radio frequency Licenses
and registration certificates, payment mechanism, income
gathering and organizational operations completely prepared
for introducing online mode of issuance.According to the
Resolution No.268 of Chairman and CEO of the Commission,
a working group was established to type, review and insert
information, into database and raw data about license, cer-tificate
and licensee’s to new format. As result of this work
general database of license was established and started op-erating
it as test.
The structure and content web site of CRC was completely
renewed at the first stage of e-CRC.
52 materials with 145Mbit size in total, had been uploaded to
the CRC web site in order to implement resolutions of CRC, an-nounce
daily operations of CRC, advertise new procedures and
rules as well as technology news, discussions, meeting results,
announcements and other information.
8 online discussions and 6 pages to receive proposals were up-loaded.
52 pages of regulatory documents of the sector, with down-loadable
files were uploaded as HTML and provided the public a
possibility to use it as announcement, recommendation or guide-book.
A menu “For service provider’s education” was added to the web
site of the Commission, which includes and advertises relevant
instructions, guidebooks, video tutorials, recommendations, re-search

licensing service were mapped by each work place
and tested in paper case for transition to online mode.In
order to provide the service and relevant instructions to the
licensee, individuals and entities from single point, under im-plementation
of this project, the Hall for “Information and
Service desk” was established on 5th floor of the main office

SUMMARY OF FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Project title: Renewing the vision-Mongolian
communications licensing and regulatory policy in an
era of convergence (Financed by the World Bank)
Based on the work undertaken and from consultations with the CRC and sector stakeholders, the Consultants have produced
the set of final documents that have been annexed to this Final Report. This set of documents contains the final recommen-dations
for the CRC regarding the implementation of a new licensing framework for the communications sector. In summary,
these include the following:
Licensing recommendations
Contracted consulting company:
AJH Communications LLC,
MacMillan Keck Attorneys & Solicitors
Andrew J.Haire
Rationale of the licensing framework
The current licensing framework relies on: (1) distinctions
between facilities, services and content, and (2) distinctions
between wholesale and retail services. The application of
these distinctions, however, is inconsistent (e.g., retail Li-censes
providers being allowed to deploy infrastructure) and
the CRC should review it with a view to streamlining.
License scope
The CRC should provide more clarity regarding what activi-ties
are licensable and the scope of activities of each License
type, and to make the terms of Licenses available to the
public.

Necessity of certain License types
CRC should consider discontinuing licensing requirements for
services such as data hosting Licenses and content aggrega-tors
and address concerns through other regulatory means.
Separating transmission from content
The current licensing framework addresses the means of
transmission and content (e.g., Licenses that distinguish
between content for cable TV channels and TV channels)
together. The CRC is advised to review its transmission and
content licensing classifications in order to define the two
concepts more clearly.
Technology neutrality and convergence
The removal of licensing requirements that hinder the ability
of operators to take full advantage of service convergence
and maximise the usage of their networks will be consid-ered.
The CRC should consider a more technology neutral
and converged License classification framework that would
focus on the consumer as the ultimate beneficiary.
Limitations on the number of Licenses
In order to favour greater economic efficiency driven by
market forces of supply and demand, the CRC is advised
to consider removing limits on the number of Licenses in
most services except in cases where there are technical or
scarce resource constraints, such as particular radio spec-trum
bands. To the extent possible, in cases where License
number limitations are necessary, the CRC should endeav-our
to provide greater information to stakeholders regarding
the reasons behind such limitations, their expected duration
and efforts to overcome any regulatory unfairness resulting
from those limitations.
Monitoring and
enforcement
Given operator complaints regarding the adequacy of regu-latory
monitoring and enforcement, the CRC should consider
adding terms and conditions related specifically to monitor-ing
and enforcement in order to reinforce this aspect of the
CRC’s functions.
License duration
In the interest of fairness and transparency, the CRC should
considering rationalising License durations based on objec-tive
factors, taking into account the useful life of the un-derlying
assets, so as to allow for an acceptable return on
investment for operators.
FISCAL YEAR 2013 43

2 e-ccr PROJECT 44
Geographic scope
The CRC should considering granting telecommunications Li-censes
on a national level (i.e., generally without geographic
restrictions) to allow operators to take advantage of econ-omies
of scale. Some radio spectrum Licenses will naturally
remain geographic in limitation.
License fees
The CRC is advised to review its License fee framework in
light of the growing international practice of levying fees as
a proportion of revenue, and with an eye to recovering costs
associated with its regulatory responsibility.
License applications
It should consider easing licensing application processes
through increased use of notification and registration pro-cesses.
It should also consider whether market entry con-cerns
can be addressed by less intrusive regulatory means,
such as an emphasis on consumer protection and education
efforts or by the use of performance bonds.
Clarity and transparency
The CRC should considering introducing mechanisms by
which fairness and transparency can be safeguarded, such
as publishing criteria for qualification or selection where
possible and, in the case of disqualifications or rejections of
applications, providing justification.
License renewals
In the interest of promoting investor confidence for ongoing
investment throughout the term of Licenses, the CRC should
consider whether there would be benefits in providing a
clearer presumption of renewal and the circumstances under
such a presumption would not apply, such as in the case of
serious infringements of License conditions and regulations.

Recommendations on broader issues
improving the transpar-ency,
predictability and
quality of CRC deci-sion-
making generally;
providing the CRC with
sufficient enforcement
powers to regulate ef-fectively;
strengthening compe-tition
through greater
focus by the CRC on
technical aspects of
competition, dominance,
abuse of market power
and consolidation;
reviewing the merits
and demerits of the
separation policy as
applied to Netco and
MTC and as applied to
service providers;
improving policies to
reach rural areas, the
current approach to the
USOF and the role of
Netco (ownership struc-ture,
exclusive rights and
commercialisation);
revisiting the advantages
and disadvantages of
current foreign
investment limits;
strengthening the legal
and regulatory
obligations around
interconnection,
infrastructure sharing
and access to
wholesale services;
examining the set up of the various roles of the State
in the sector (e.g., policy, regulatory, ownership of
operations, investment, USOF management, subsi-dies,
etc.) through the ITPTA, CRC and State Property
Committee with a view towards avoiding conflicts of
interest;
FISCAL YEAR 2013 45
reinforcing
effectiveness of
dispute resolution;
improving management,
licensing and pricing of
the radio spectrum;
reviewing the
adequacy of access
to public property; and
supporting the
enforcement of
intellectual
property rights.
