Regulator consults on improvements to MNP

Senegal’s Regulation Authority for Telecommunications and Post (L’Autorite de Regulation des Telecommunications et des Postes, ARTP) has launched a public consultation as part of a project to improve the mobile number portability (MNP) system. The document aims to gather feedback regarding potential improvements to the existing system, introduced in September 2015, in order improve the customer experience and address the significant number of rejections and low rate of ported numbers. Stakeholders have until 5 September to submit their comments.
