The Federal Public Ministry in the Federal District (MPF / DF) has 30 days to Anatel (Agência Nacional de Telecomunicações) conclusively establish the maintenance of free or not the extra point for subscribers to pay TV. The request was made in the event of MPF action brought by ABTA (Association of Brazilian pay-TV) against Anatel.

For the Prosecutor's office in the Federal District, which also expressed about the case, the lack of Anatel may not cause harm to society. "Both on the part of consumers as by suppliers, are detrimental in that it does not know which investments or acquisitions should be promoted for the future," reports.

Although the demonstration was a wise action now, the MPF may make new demands if the Anatel remains inert, and promote accountability for any delay.

The recovery of the extra point was prohibited by the agency on June 2 last year, when the Regulation entered into force for the Protection and Defense of Rights of Members of the pay-TV services. The text, however, is confused and was critical not only of operators, such as bodies for protecting consumers. New Opinions were assessed by the Director of the agency, which last week postponed for another month the decision. (From the Editor)
