Decision

Ottawa, 9 February 1996
Decision CRTC 96-49
Ontario and Atlantic Region
 Licence amendments related to station format
In Public Notice CRTC 1995-207 dated 6 December 1995, the Commission announced applications submitted by various licensees in response to the Commission's announcement in Public Notice CRTC 1995-60 entitled "A Review of Certain Matters Concerning Radio". In that public notice, the Commission announced that it would be prepared to revise the format system by relieving the licensees of commercial FM stations of their respective Promise of Performance commitments to operate their stations in Group I "Pop, Rock, and Dance" or Group II "Country". At the same time, the Commission announced that it would retain a "Specialty" format.
 The Commission approves all of the applications by the licensees of the commercial FM stations listed in the appendix to this decision, to amend their licences in order to be relieved of the current commitments set out in their Promises of Performance to operate in a Group I or Group II format. Accordingly, the Commission replaces those commitments by the following condition:

 It is a condition of licence that this station not be operated within the Specialty format as defined in Public Notice CRTC 1995-60, or as amended from time to time by the Commission.
 This decision is to be appended to the licence.
 Allan J. Darling
 Secretary General
