JOHANNESBURG- Independent Communication Authority of South Africa announced on Thursday their results of their probe into whether the price of data will be cut.
They did however stay away into look to see issues of pricing because they said the regulation of prices requires more detail report from market analysis of prices.
There was no announcement on data price cuts.
