Statement published 9 August 2023
On 5 April 2012, Ofcom published a notification in accordance with section 107(6) of the Act of its proposal to give a direction applying the Code to the Applicant. That notification explained how, in proposing to grant the application, Ofcom had had regard, in particular, to each of the matters set out in section 107(4) of the Act and had also considered its proposal in accordance with its general duties in section 3 of the Act and the requirements in section 4 of the Act. The notification invited representations to Ofcom by no later than 5pm on 8 May 2012.
Ofcom did not receive any representations about the proposal and accordingly, on 10 May 2012, informed the Applicant that it had been added to the registered list of persons with powers under the Electronic Communications Code. The Applicant (now known as Trooli Ltd) has been included on the Ofcom’s published list since that date and has been treated as having Code powers throughout.
On 8 March 2023 , a request was made to Ofcom to provide a copy of the direction applying Code powers to the Applicant. Ofcom has not been able to locate any direction in its records. Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, and to ensure clarity with forward looking effect, Ofcom has decided to make this direction applying the Code to Trooli Ltd.
