ACT bemærkede, at betingelsen om mandat kun er opfyldt, hvor der findes en retlig mekanisme til at håndhæve public service-forpligtelsen, der reelt giver mulighed for at tvinge den offentlige operatør til at opfylde sin overdragne opgave.
ACT commented that the condition concerning entrustment is only fulfilled when there is a legal mechanism to enforce the public service obligation, with real powers to compel the public operator to discharge the tasks assigned.
