Order CRTC 2001-687

Ottawa, 31 August 2001

Unanimous Shareholders Agreement

Reference: 8638-C12-45/00

The Commission approves the Unanimous Shareholders Agreement as agreed to by the CRTC Interconnection Steering Committee members and Contribution Collection Mechanism Co-ordination Committee members.

1.

Following the release of Decision CRTC 2000-745, Changes to the contribution regime, dated 30 November 2000, five working groups were established to assist in the implementation details of the new contribution regime. All parties in the proceeding leading to Decision 2000-745, and all telecommunications service providers known to the Commission, were invited to participate in the working groups. A Co-ordination Committee, chaired by Commission staff, was also created to co-ordinate the tasks performed by the working groups.

2.

The Canadian Portable Contribution Consortium (CPCC) was originally incorporated to establish and supervise mechanisms designed to implement the portable contribution regime that was in Telecom Decision CRTC 97-8, Local competition, dated 1 May 1997. As a result of revisions in the regulatory regime applicable to portable contribution in Decision 2000-745, a new shareholders agreement was required, which would take into account the significant changes in the organization and operation of the CPCC.

3.

The Legal Working Group was tasked, among other things, with developing a Unanimous Shareholders Agreement between the shareholders and the CPCC. At a joint meeting held on 12 July 2001, the Contribution Collection Mechanism (CCM) Co-ordination Committee and the CRTC Interconnection Steering Committee members reached a consensus on the Unanimous Shareholders Agreement. The agreement can be examined at the following Internet site: http://www.crtc.gc.ca/cisc/eng/cisf4gf.htm

4.

The Commission hereby approves the Unanimous Shareholders Agreement.

Secretary General
