UCC gives illegal courier operators ultimatum

Must read

The Executive Director of Uganda Communications Commission (UCC) Godfrey Mutabazi has today warned postal and courier services operators to renew their licenses or halt operations until when they have obtained valid licenses.

In a statement, Eng. Mutabazi said the Commission will begin enforcing the directive across the country, beginning November 1. “The Commission shall starting from November 1 2017 embark on nationwide enforcement activities against illegal postal and courier operators,” he warned.

“All licensed postal and courier operators are therefore reminded to display their valid license at their places of work or businesses,” he added.

In accordance with section 5(b) of the Uganda Communications Act, the UCC is mandated to monitor, licenses, supervise, control and regulate all communication services, while Section 33 of the Act prohibits any person from conveying or distributing and postal article without a license.

Postal articles include books, packages, parcels and newspapers among others.
