Section 95: Enforcement notification for contravention of conditions

237.If, by the end of the period specified in section 94, OFCOM are satisfied that the condition about which the provider was notified has still not been fully complied with, subsection (2) allows OFCOM to serve an enforcement notification on the notified provider. Such a notification requires the notified provider to take such steps as are specified in the notification to comply with the notified condition and remedy the consequences of any contravention, within the period specified in the notification. Those persons to whom an enforcement notification has been given are under a duty, enforceable by OFCOM via civil proceedings, to comply with it.
