• Resumen

  • The Competition Appeal Tribunal has determined that British Sky Broadcasting Limited (Sky) should allow British Telecommunications Plc (BT) sports channel BT Sports to screen Sky�s sports channels. The background to the case was that in 2010, the UK communications regulator Ofcom decided to vary Sky�s broadcast licence pursuant to section 316 of the Communications Act 2003, whereby Sky had to offer its Sky Sports 1 and 2 channels at wholesale prices to other TV platforms - this is known as wholesale must-offer obligation (WMO) (see IRIS 2010-5/26).
