New Zealand Communications and Technology Minister Steven Joyce has asked the Commerce Commission to reconsider its recommendation on mobile termination access services.

In a statement Tuesday, Joyce said he received the final report on mobile termination access services in February, recommending the minister accept offers put forward by Telecom Corp. of New Zealand Ltd. (NZT, TEL.NZ) and Vodafone Group PLC's (VOD, VOD.LN) Vodafone New Zealand in lieu of regulation.

However, in April, the Commission noted a new retail offering launched by Vodafone in April "may be material" and could affect the basis for the commission's recommendation. As a result, Joyce has asked the commission to consider any relevant retail offers since the report was sent, or that may be released before the commission finalizes its reconsidered advice, in order to determine the implications they have on their recommendation that he accept the undertakings put forward by the two companies.
