Consumers
Consumer Protection and Advocacy forms an integral part of CRAN’s mandate. The Regulator endeavours to ensure that consumers receive the full benefits of competitive electronic communication services and are protected from any exploitation or abuse.
Licensing
CRAN is mandated by Communications Act (No. 8 of 2009) to grant, renew, amend, transfer, suspend and revoke licences in the areas of broadcasting and telecommunications service in Namibia.
