Abstract

The development of the information and communications technology (ICT) sector in Papua New Guinea and the current legislative arrangements and law under which the sector is regulated and operated are reviewed. Recent attempts to develop a new ICT policy for Papua New Guinea are also discussed. The key institutions and organisations and their various roles and responsibilities in policy development and regulation are also examined to give context to the recent dispute between PANGTEL and the Independent Competition and Consumer Commission (ICCC) over the issuance and subsequent attempted revocation of a spectrum licence to Digicel, a new entrant to the mobile phone industry.
