• Supply all data by 1 September each year for 2017, 2018 according to the 2 year agreement (and 2019 if Ofcom choose to extended the Contract to 3 years).
• Supply all data in spreadsheets using the same Ofcom provided template each year for each country.
• Clear all data for use in our publications.
• Support Ofcom as it analyses the data and prepares its report over the period
