Schedule 13: Penalties imposed by OFCOM under Chapter 6 of Part 7 Amount of penalties: principles
Paragraph 2 of Schedule 13 sets out the things that OFCOM must take into account when determining the size of the penalty. This includes any representations made by the person or evidence provided by the person and the effects of the failure. OFCOM must also consider any steps taken by the person to comply with the requirements set out in the provisional notice, confirmation decision or penalty notice, and any steps taken to remedy the failure. Any penalty that OFCOM imposes must be considered by OFCOM to be appropriate and proportionate to the failure (or failures).
