The broadband Universal Service Obligation (USO) will give everyone across the UK, including those that are connected via local exchange only lines, a clear enforceable right to request high speed broadband subject to a reasonable cost threshold.<\/p>

<\/p>

Following a consultation in 2017, the design for the USO was set out in secondary legislation in March 2018 and the consultation response published online.<\/p>

<\/p>

Ofcom is now responsible for implementing the USO, including designating the Universal Service Provider(s), and the design of an industry cost sharing fund. Following a call for expressions of interest, Ofcom published a consultation on 13 September seeking views on proposals for the process of designating a Universal Service Provider. Ofcom will also consider the wider USO aspects, including the identification of Universal Service Provider(s) and the regulatory obligations which will apply to them, in a further consultation later this year.<\/p>

<\/p>

Ofcom, rather than Local Authorities, is responsible for enforcing the broadband USO.<\/p>
