As of June 2023, the percentage of Tanzanians who had access to a telephone was more than one hundred per cent. However, this has not always been so. For example, in 1997, there was a telephone density of 0.32 per cent. This average was much lower than those of neighbouring Kenya (0.92), the Southern African Development Community (SADC) (3.4), Asia (3.86), and Europe (35.36). Fast forward a little over twenty years and practically everyone in Tanzania now has access to a telephone. This chapter, among other things, argues that establishing favourable legislative and regulatory frameworks that encourage the competitive provision of telecommunication services has directly contributed to these developments. As a result, the chapter's primary argument is that the implementation of these frameworks has directly contributed to increased access to telecommunications services, which in turn has contributed to the achievement of the SDGs.

This article focuses on the personal liability of managers of undertakings for breaches of competition law. This article starts with a review of the sanction regime for managers of undertakings according to the Competition law of the Republic of Lithuania. Reviewed are legal provisions and judicial practice of the Lithuanian courts starting from 2017, that is, when the first request to sanction a manager of an undertaking was submitted to the court by the Competition Council (CC). It is pointed out that in most cases the courts do not fully accept the requests of the CC with respect to the severity of the sanctions to be imposed on managers. The second part of the Article comprehensively analyses the case-law of administrative courts of the Republic of Lithuania, and presents key elements of the imposition of sanctions on company managers. Firstly, in exceptional circumstances, courts may impose a lower penalty than the one specified by competition law. Secondly, the courts may impose both, the main sanction as well as an additional one, or any of them. Thirdly, the level of sanctions should be determined the light of the fines imposed on undertakings for their infringements of competition law. The article concludes with a short summary.
