    ComReg has yet to fine a single telecoms company since it was set up under legislation over two years ago, despite several high-profile breaches by the major telecom companies. ComReg is unique in being the only telecoms regulator in Europe which does not have the authority to levy fines.

    Don't be ridiculous! The reason why there's been no fines is because our regulator is doing such a fantastic job that it doesn't need to resort to them :D

    I hear they've a great telecoms network in Greece... :p /OFFTOPIC

    To be fair though, if comreg "does not have the authority to levy fines" then we can hardly be surprised when they don't fine anyone...
