NTRA is going to finalise drafting the 4G contracts today and will send them to the MNOs “within days.” The news comes after the network operators missed the deadline to apply for 4G licenses back in the first week of August, Al Mal reports. The three mobile network operators (MNOs) are requesting the National Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (NTRA) add a clause to the 4G license agreement guaranteeing more 4G frequency within two years launch, sources told Al Mal. The MNOs are insisting on the additional spectrum to ensure they offer quality services — and to insulate themselves from future challenges from the Consumer Protection Agency. We had previously reported that the NTRA had promised to make more network frequencies available, but officials noted at the time that permission to release the frequencies was the responsibility of “other government authorities” that are not required by the Telecommunications Act to play ball.
