«Takes note»: what Parliament actually decided about phone scams — and why the anonymous SIM card stays legal until 2027

On 2 July, Parliament adopted a decision on the report of the inquiry commission into phone scams. We read its text in the state registry: article 1 says it «takes note» of the report. The National Anti-Fraud Focal Point has not been established — it has been recommended, and the government has 90 days, until 30 September, to report on what it has done. The two bills that would end the anonymity of SIM cards and oblige operators to block spoofed calls are still in first reading. Meanwhile, one thing already works: over 80% of the attempts reported to 112 were foiled.
