Court extends order against ComReg
The order, granted on Tuesday, was continued for two weeks yesterday on the application of Michael Cush SC, for Smart. He said the order could be continued on consent of both sides on the basis of Smart’s undertaking for damages also continuing and liberty to apply to both parties.
Smart initiated proceedings after it was notified this week by ComReg that the offer for the fourth 3G licence had been withdrawn. The licence provides for a minimum of 53% network coverage to be achieved by 2011. Vodafone, O2 and 3 Ireland hold the existing licences.
