3. Calculation method for theannual monitoring tariff
The annual monitoring tariff is a percentage of the turnover or of the revenues obtained from the provision of electronic communications networks and services or from the provision of postal services, registered in the previous year, based on each provider’s choice.
The percentage applied, based on the provider’s choice, either on the turnover corresponding to the previous year of each provider of electronic communications networks and services and/or of postal services or on the revenues obtained from the provision of electronic communications networks and services or of postal services, cannot exceed 0.4%, as a ratio of:
- the administrative expenditures provided in Article 123(2) of the Government Emergency Ordinance no.111/2011, minus revenues from other sources, also taking into consideration the amounts of the annual surplus resulted from the execution of the previous years’ budgets, and
- the cumulated turnover, corresponding to the previous year, of all the providers of electronic communications and/or of postal services that owe the annual monitoring tariff.
The annual monitoring tariff owed by each provider is established a result of:
- the above-mentioned percentage, times
- the turnover/ the revenues obtained from the provision of electronic communications networks or services and/or of postal services registered by the respective provider.
The legislative solution is inspired from the regulations in force at the European level comes in the vein of financing regulatory authorities manly from the contributions of entities within their scope of competence.
With a view to enforcing the legal provisions on the annual monitoring tariff, for the entities that had the capacity as a provider of electronic communications networks and services and/or of postal services throughout a whole calendar year, the turnover ”is the whole turnover provided in the annual financial statements drawn up for the year preceding the one for which the monitoring tariff is owed.” The turnover of entities that did not hold the capacity as a provider of electronic communications networks and services and/or of postal services throughout a whole calendar year, the turnover ”is determined based on summing up the revenues obtained during the months of the year preceding the one for which the monitoring tariff is owed, in which the respective entity had the capacity as a provider, including the month when that capacity was acquired”.
The providers that chose their monitoring tariff to be calculated based on the revenues obtained from the provision of electronic communications networks and services and/or of postal services, according to the provisions of Article 129 (2) of the Government Emergency Ordinance no.111/2011, must keep separated accounts for the revenues from the provision of electronic communications networks and services and/or of postal services.
