Ottawa, 30 January 2002 |

CRTC denies TCI application to amalgamate certain tariff items |
||
|
Reference: TELUS Communications Inc. tariff notice 18 |
||
|
1. |
On 6 November 2001, TELUS Communications Inc. (TCI) filed tariff notice 18 to request approval of the amalgamation of the former TCI General Tariff item 310 - Toll Restriction Services, with TCBC General Tariff item 161 - Call Guardian. The two services would be amalgamated into TCI General Tariff item 306 - Call Guardian. |
|
|
2. |
The amalgamation of these tariff items as proposed by TCI would result in a price increase for Alberta business customers and a price decrease for British Columbia business customers. |
|
|
3. |
The Commission notes that, under the current price cap regime, the two services that TCI has proposed for amalgamation are classified as services with frozen rates. |
|
|
4. |
The price cap regime is currently under review. A decision on the terms and conditions of a new price cap regime for TCI and other telephone companies is pending. |
|
|
5. |
Accordingly, the Commission considers it inappropriate at this time to approve the amalgamation of the two tariff items as proposed by TCI. |
|
|
6. |
In light of the above, the Commission denies the application. |
