Ofcom opened this investigation to determine whether there were reasonable grounds for believing that Genesis was in contravention of the requirement to pay the administrative charge. As part of this investigation, Genesis has accepted that it was providing electronic communications services and was therefore liable to pay the administrative charge. The level of the charge was reduced following the submission by Genesis of revised relevant turnover figures based on audited accounts. Genesis has now met its obligations by paying the administrative charge to Ofcom and Ofcom has therefore closed its investigation.
