Cran reageer op invoerders

Die reguleerder sê sy personeel en doeanebeamptes is goed opgelei om hul werk te doen en sê tipe goedkeuring neem slegs 40 dae indien daar aan alle vereistes voldoen is.

Elvira Hattingh - Die Regulerende Owerheid vir Kommunikasie van Namibië (Cran) sê die ondertekening van wedersydse erkenningsooreenkomste met reguleerders van ander lande sal nie die vereistes vir plaaslike tipe goedkeuring verander nie.

Dít volg nadat invoerders onlangs die hoop uitgespreek het dat só ’n ooreenkoms met byvoorbeeld die Suid-Afrikaanse reguleerder Icasa aangegaan kan word.

“Sulke ooreenkomste moet op ’n lidstaatvlak onderteken word en sal Cran in staat stel om toerusting te toets soos nodig en ook om van hul laboratoriums gebruik te maak. Dit sal egter nie die vereistes vir goedkeuring verander nie.

“Goedkeuringsertifikate wat in ander lande uitgereik word, is slegs geldig binne daardie land se grense en het nie jurisdiksie in Namibië nie. Namibië is ’n soewereine staat,” sê mnr. Festus Mbandeka, Cran se uitvoerende hoof.

Boonop sê hy Cran was genoodsaak om in die tussentyd streng maatreëls in te stel nadat sekere invoerders telekommunikasietoerusting deur middel van vervalsing die land ingebring het.

“Die verskeping van telekommunikasietoerusting sonder geldige tipe goedkeuring-sertifikate word op eie risiko gedoen en die reguleerder sal nie verantwoordelik gehou word vir enige toerusting wat as gevolg hiervan by ons grense geskut word nie.”

Op invoerders se klagte dat doeanebeamptes soms toerusting by grense terughou omdat hulle nie weet waarvoor alles tipe goedkeuring vereis word nie, of dat hulle soms onkundig is, sê Mbandeka doeanebeamptes is wel opgelei om telekommunikasietoerusting, wat Cran se goedkeuring benodig, behoorlik te ondersoek.

“Verder het Cran en die ministerie van finansies se afdeling vir doeane en aksyns ’n wedersydse samewerkingsooreenkoms in 2015 onderteken oor hoe om seker te maak alle toerusting wat gebruik, verkoop of plaaslik met elektroniese kommunikasienetwerke verbind word, nie die land se grense sonder geldige sertifikate sal binnekom nie.

“Doeanebeamptes het toegang tot ons databasis, wat aandui watter toerusting tipe goedkeuringsertifikate moet hê en watter reeds deur Cran goedgekeur is. Boonop is doeanebeamptes in voortdurende kontak met ’n aangewese Cran-span om unieke probleme te hanteer,” sê Mbandeka.

Hy sê ook die Cran-span wat aansoeke vir tipe goedkeuring hanteer beskik oor al die nodige kennis in ingenieurswese en inligtingtegnologie om die regulasies af te dwing en ontvang gereeld opleiding soos wat tegnologie ontwikkel.

Verder meen Cran die aansoekprosedure is eenvoudig.

“Aansoekers moet ’n Cran-vorm getiteld “Telekommunikasietoerusting tipe goedkeuring” invul en dit moet al die relevante dokumente vergesel soos aangedui op p.15 van die aansoekvorm.

“Vanweë die aard van die proses en aantal aansoeke wat ons ontvang, neem dit 40 dae om die aansoek te voltooi – mits al die nodige dokumente saam ingedien word en die nodige geld betaal is. Aansoekers wat sukkel om die vereistes te verstaan, kan direk met Cran kontak maak,” sê Mbandeka.
