47From the perspective of the provider, that ‘obligation’ must be understood, as is also clear from the communication and resolution mentioned above, as implying, first, the binding commitment to provide the services in question and, secondly, the need to do so under certain specific conditions. Those conditions relate, inter alia, to ensuring that the services are provided in accordance with the established quantitative and qualitative requirements and in such a manner as to ensure the equality of access to services, subject, in principle, to adequate financial compensation, calculated on the basis of parameters established in advance in an objective and transparent manner (see, by analogy, Case C-140/09 Fallimento Traghetti del Mediterraneo [2010] ECR I-5243, paragraph 38 and the case-law cited).
