In particular, this programme provides that : there will be specific ONP Directives for leased lines and voice telephony; by 1 January 1991, technical interfaces and services features concerning packet-switched data transmission and the ISDN will be established and could be made mandatory according to the procedure mentioned above; ONP conditions will be adopted in the form of recommendations by 1 July 1991 and 1 January 1992 for packet-switched data transmission and the ISDN respectively; the Council will examine Commisson proposa ...[+++]ls in 1992 and thereafter by which the recommendations mentioned above would be transposed into directives.

In his announcement, Mr Carpentier explained that actions were required specifically: - to enhance user services; - to improve interworking between heterogeneous computers through the provision of systems conforming to European norms, currently being defined on the basis of internationally agreed standards for OSI; - to help users of existing closed or dedicated networks to contact their colleagues in the outside world, and to be contacted by them, by helping them in duly justified cases with the process of transition to use of the OSI standards; - to improve further the level and quality of service provided by the underlying packet-s ...[+++]witched infrastructure of the PTTs and PTOs (Private Telecommunications Operators).

There will most probably not be any mandatory standards for value- added services since the procedure mentioned above was conceived for application to basic services such as packet-switched data transmission and the ISDN.
