| Ottawa, 26 July 2000 | |
|
Contribution exemption approved for for Centrex systems used to provide single-hop or local services Reference: 8626-M42-01/00 |
|
| By fax dated 2 May 2000, MEGATEL inc. provided an affidavit seeking a contribution exemption for Centrex systems used to provide single-hop or local services. The Commission grants approval subject to certain conditions. | |
|
1. |
By letter dated 31 May 2000, Bell Canada stated that it has reviewed the affidavit and noted that it generally appears to satisfy the requirements for such exemptions with one exception: there is no reference to specific Centrex services that might already be in place. Rather, Bell Canada stated that the affidavit made a generic reference to systems in several areas of its territory. In this respect, Bell Canada stated that it has reviewed its files and cannot find a record of Centrex services ordered or in place for MEGATEL. In light of this, Bell Canada submitted that MEGATEL's application should be treated as a request for advance approval of an exemption, pending the installation of service. |
|
2. |
Accordingly, Bell Canada agreed with a request for advance approval of an exemption, subject to the requirement that MEGATEL provide a revised affidavit within 30 days after the installation of its system(s), identifying the Centrex system(s). The exemption should limit MEGATEL's services to local and single-hop configurations. |
|
3. |
The Commission is of the view that the affidavit satisfies the requirement for an advance approval of an exemption for single-hop and local services. |
|
4. |
Accordingly, the Commission grants advance approval to MEGATEL's application subject to the company providing a revised affidavit within 30 days after the installation of its system(s), identifying the Centrex system(s) and affirming that it is arranged in a manner to limit services to local and single-hop configurations only. |
