Hearing on Rate Policy and Transparency
in the MCT Market
On December 30, 2015, the Company received
the notification of the subsidiary, DBS Satellite Services (1998) Ltd. ("DBS"), regarding a hearing which was
announced on the same day by the Ministry of Communications and addressed to the multi-channel television ("MCT")
market, including DBS, on the subject of "Setting a Rate Policy and Implementation of Transparency Guidelines."
The hearing was preceded by the decision
of the Chairman of the Council for Cable TV and Satellite Broadcasting ("the Council") not to approve at this
point in time the new special offer appendices that were submitted by DBS in connection with an increase in the price of its VOD
services, because of prima facie concerns that they are discriminatory. Concurrently, the Chairman of the Council also decided
not to approve increases in various rates about which the owner of the general cable TV broadcasting license had notified the
Council.
At the hearing it was said that the
Council believes that the current structure of rates in the MCT market poses significant harm to competition and gives rise to
prima facie concerns about discrimination and deception. Therefore, the Council held a hearing on its intention to establish a
comprehensive policy for rates in the MCT market, including various recommendations which are detailed in the complete hearing
document attached to this report.
The Council further decided, in the
framework of the hearing, to make it obligatory to disclose all the price lists and special offers of the companies in the MCT
market, by way of an amendment to the companies' licenses, such that they will be required to publish on their website all the
special offers made, today and henceforth, to all their customers, in accordance with the principle of transparency.
The Council decided, in addition, that
at this stage, price increases in the MCT market will be frozen temporarily up to the completion of the hearing proceedings within
a short while, and the companies also will not be allowed to propose new special offer appendices.
DBS is studying the details and implications
of the hearing, and it and the Company are unable as of now to assess the effects of the hearing on DBS. DBS plans to submit its
comments on the hearing by the deadline set for responses, February 1, 2016.
