Legislation that will enhance competition in the Mexican telecom sector has been backed by Congress, with the upper house giving final approval to the bill. The reforms, which were initially proposed by President Enrique Pena Nieto in March 2013, were approved by the Senate by a huge margin, with 108 giving the go-ahead for the plans, while just three voted against it. However, the bill now still needs to be passed by a majority of state legislatures, though this is expected to be a formality, and it has been suggested that President Nieto will sign the bill into law in June this year.
