A method for managing radio resources allocated by a radio network controller of a UTRAN radio access network, where the resources support a plurality of service requests identified by a radio access bearer service request sent by the core network and describing the required QoS as a set of RAB parameters defined by mapping with corresponding QoS parameters of the core network, the controller is provided to distribute the resources amongst the bearer services and to modulate the allocation of the resources according to the priority level associated with each of the bearer services, and the priority level is defined by the 'priority level' sub-parameter of the 'Allocation Retention Priority' RAB parameter, with a value determined by taking into account the value of the &#x201c;Allocation Retention Priority&#x201d; QOS parameter of the core network and the value of at least one QoS parameter associated with the type of service.
