# The Electronic Communications (Universal Service) (Costs) (Amendment) Regulations 2021, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Electronic Communications (Universal Service) (Costs) Regulations 2020 (S.I. 2020/545) (the “2020 Regulations”).
Regulations 2(a) and 2(b) substitute the term “central funds” for “public funds” wherever it is used in the 2020 Regulations and insert a definition of public funds.
A regulatory impact assessment of the effect that the 2020 Regulations will have on cost to business is available to the public from OFCOM’s website at http://www.ofcom.org.uk or from the OFCOM library at Riverside House, 2a Southwark Bridge Road, London SE1 9HA. Copies of this assessment have also been placed in the library of the House of Commons. There are no additional impacts arising from these Regulations which make corrections to the 2020 Regulations.
