APPROCHE DE LA DIRECTIVE 2014/61/UE «GÉNIE CIVIL»

Summary/Abstract: The field of electronic communications law has been significantly promoted by the adoption of directive 2014/61/UE on measures to reduce the cost of deploying high-speed electronic communications networks. The central principle of the directive, called in French “génie civil”, namely “civil engineering”, consists in the consecration of the fundamental right to access to existing physical infrastructure under fair and reasonable terms and conditions, including price.The infrastructures on the matter are those of the sectors of electronic communications, transports, energy and water. Besides, the directive also introduces other rights for the undertakings, such as the right to access to information on the existing physical infrastructure and reinforces the inhabitant right to serenity. Although the directive makes no explicit use of the term “interregulation”, it exemplifies well this modern concept against the classical phenomenon of regulation per sector, in the field of public economic law.
