  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations amend the Trade (Mobile Roaming) Regulations 2023 (S.I. 2023/214) (“the Roaming Regulations”). The Roaming Regulations limit the wholesale roaming rates chargeable to mobile phone service providers in certain countries or territories with which the United Kingdom has an international agreement.\nThe Roaming Regulations were implemented to give effect to Article 3.69 of, and Annex XX to, the Free Trade Agreement between Iceland, the Principality of Liechtenstein, and the Kingdom of Norway and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (Miscellaneous Series No.3 (2021)) (“the Agreement”).\nThe United Kingdom-EEA EFTA Joint Committee decided on 25th November 2025 (Decision No. 1/2025) to amend the wholesale roaming rates as set out in Annex XX to the Agreement. Regulation 2 of these Regulations gives effect to that decision by amending the wholesale roaming rates set out in the Schedule to the Roaming Regulations.\nA full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.\nAn Explanatory Memorandum is published alongside this instrument at www.legislation.gov.uk.",
