Article 58 (1) and (2) of the Uganda Communications Act states that a telecommunications operator may, with the approval of the Commission, enter into an agreement with any other operator for the purpose of connecting its network facilities with the network facilities of that other operator on terms and conditions that the operators may agree. The operators the should submit to the Commission an application for approval of an interconnection agreement. Article 5 also states that the Commission may, on its won motion, impose an interconnection agreement on two operators if a negotiated agreement is not possible. Although the Uganda Communications Act uses may phrase, an obligation was introduced in Article 5 (1) of the Communications (Telecommunications and Radio Communications Equipment Type Approval) where an operator of a telecommunications network or a radio communications network shall not refuse to connect a terminal equipment to appropriate interfaces.Article 5(1) of the Uganda Communications (Interconnection and Access) Regulations No. 88 of 2019 echoed the previous regulation by stating that a telecommunications operator shall make available its infrastructure and facilities for interconnection with other operators.
