universal service operator
Explanation:
From the links below to the Danish and English versions of the EU's Universal Service Directive:
"På et marked med fri konkurrence bør alle virksomheder, der udbyder offentligt tilgængelige telefonitjenester over faste net, være underlagt visse forpligtelser, mens andre forpligtelser kun bør gælde for virksomheder, der har en stærk markedsposition eller som er blevet udpeget som forsyningspligtudbydere."

"In a competitive market, certain obligations should apply to all undertakings providing publicly available telephone services at fixed locations and others should apply only to undertakings enjoying significant market power or which have been designated as a universal service operator."
