On the 22^nd of April, the Commission hosted a stakeholder consultation session for the proposed Eswatini’s Spectrum Band Plan at Mountain View International Hotel.

This covered the spectrum allocation and assignment process and how the proposed band plan will impact the management thereof. The event was attended by ESCCOM, the Ministry of ICT, and representatives from all the ISPs, MNOs, and broadcasting licensees.

The attended had an opportunity to table their questions and comments in relation to the proposed spectrum band plan and other issues touching on spectrum allocation usage. Some of the comments made were in relation to the role of the Commission when a service provider uses a spectrum that hasn’t been allocated to them and interference that comes from other countries especially Mozambique which comes with language communication barriers making it hard to resolve any issues there may be.
