ACT commented that the condition concerning entrustment is only fulfilled when there is a legal mechanism to enforce the public service obligation, with real powers to compel the public operator to discharge the tasks assigned.
ACT bemærkede, at betingelsen om mandat kun er opfyldt, hvor der findes en retlig mekanisme til at håndhæve public service-forpligtelsen, der reelt giver mulighed for at tvinge den offentlige operatør til at opfylde sin overdragne opgave.
