Telecommunications in Peru include radio and television, fixed and mobile telephones, and the Internet. ==Regulation== The technical regulator of communications in Peru is the Presidency of the Minister Council, through the ''Organismo Supervisor de la Inversión Privada en Telecomunicaciones'' (OSIPTEL) in English, Supervisory Agency for Private Investment in Telecommunications. The Ministry of Transport and Communications grants concessions, authorizations, permits and licenses.〔("Peru Telecommunication Regulation" ), Maria Luisa Gubbins, Lex Mundi, 2010.〕 The resale of telecommunication services is permitted as a regulated activity. Voice Over IP (VoIP) services are not expressly regulated, but may need a concession or a registry depending on the type of service provided. Carrier interconnection is mandatory and interconnection fees are regulated. The Peruvian government maintains a Telecommunications Investment Fund (FITEL) to promote universal service within the country's most isolated regions, including rural areas and areas of social interest.〔 Following the successful implementation of mobile number portability, the government requires fixed number portability be launched by July 2014.〔("Peru - Telecom Market Trends, Key Statistics and Regulatory Overview" ), Budde.com, 21 May 2014.〕 All telecommunication services have been liberalized and are rendered under a free competition regime according to the Telecommunications Law. Under Peru’s single concession regime all telecom services, including fixed-line, mobile, pay TV, and Internet, are provided under unified concessions that cover the entire country.〔 Privatization began in 1994 when the state-owned companies Compañía Peruana de Teléfonos S.A. (CPT) and Entel Perú were auctioned to Telefónica de España. In December 1994, Entel Perú was merged into CPT. In 1995, CPT changed its name to Telefónica del Perú S.A. (TdP).〔 Telefónica del Perú continues to dominate the market for basic telephone services.〔("Peru - Fixed-Line Market and Infrastructure - Overview, Statistics and Forecasts" ), Budde.com, 21 May 2014.〕 The operation of broadcasting companies is governed by the Law of Radio and Television (Law Nº 28278).
