Roaming charges in the EU could be gone by 2014

Neelie Kroes, the European Commissioner for Digital Agenda, is lobbying the European Parliament for an end to roaming charges within the European Union.



In a speech today in front of parliament, Kroes demanded support for moving through legislation a complete telecoms package for all of Europe by Easter of 2014.

“I want us to show citizens that the EU is relevant to their lives. That we made the digital rules catch up with their legitimate expectations. I want you to be able to go back to your constituents and say that you were able to end mobile roaming costs.”

Other aspects which the potential legislation aims take action on is net neutrality and cybercrime, which generally vary largely among EU member states.
