Customer-specific minimum revenue commitment arrangement

1.
|
The Commission received an application by TELUS Communications Inc. (TCI), dated 10 July 2003, to revise its Special Facilities Tariff in order to introduce item 217, Customer-Specific Minimum Revenue Commitment Arrangement - Specific Customer Only, proposing a bundle of tariffed and non-tariffed services. TCI submitted that this bundled service satisfied the imputation test applicable to a Type II Customer-specific arrangement (CSA) as contemplated by Bundling framework developed for customer-specific arrangements, Order CRTC 2000-425, 19 May 2000 (Order 2000-425).

The Commission received no comments with respect to TCI's application.

The Commission finds that the proposed bundled service is a CSA within the meaning of Order 2000-425 and that it satisfies the conditions, including the imputation test, in respect of Type II CSAs. However, the Commission finds that minor wording changes to the tariff pages as filed are required.

|
|
