effective and efficient use of the radio spectrum.

For the certain radio equipment additional requirements are mentioned in the Directive. These concern to universal charges, equipment that contains protections to secure personal data and privacy, and equipment which guarantees access to emergency services. The additional requirements will be set by the European Commission (in the near future).
