Abstract :
The role of numbering in the provision of telecommunications has changed substantially since the introduction of competition in the provision of service. This article looks at the changes that have been driven by competition and some examples of the problems caused by a lack of clear public policy direction, and suggests a method in order to proceed to resolve this deficiency.<>
