Decision

Ottawa, 14 August 1996
Decision CRTC 96-403
Shaw Cablesystems Inc.
Bolton and surrounding area, Ontario - 951877000
Licence renewal
Following Public Notice CRTC 1996-46 dated 27 March 1996, the Commission renews the Class 2 licence held by Shaw Cablesystems Inc., for the cable distribution undertaking serving Bolton and surrounding area, from 1 September 1996 to 31 August 2003.
The operation of this undertaking is regulated pursuant to Parts I, II and IV of the Cable Television Regulations, 1986 (the regulations) and the licence will be subject to the conditions in effect under the current licence, as well as to those conditions specified in this decision and in the licence to be issued.
The licensee is relieved, by condition of licence, of the requirement of section 12 of the regulations to distribute the signals of CHCH-TV Hamilton, CBLT, CFTO-TV and CIII-TV-41 Toronto, on unrestricted channels. Should the quality of the signals deteriorate significantly, the Commission expects the licensee to undertake immediate corrective action including, if necessary, the distribution of these services on other channels.
In Public Notice CRTC 1992-59 dated 1 September 1992 and entitled "Implementation of an Employment Equity Policy", the Commission announced that the employment equity practices of broadcasters would be subject to examination by the Commission. In this regard, the Commission encourages the licensee to consider employment equity issues in its hiring practices and in all other aspects of its management of human resources.
This decision is to be appended to the licence.
Allan J. Darling
Secretary General
