Telecom Order CRTC 2004-41

  Ottawa, 9 February 2004
 

TELUS Communications (Québec) Inc.

  Reference: Tariff Notice 370
 

Leased channel restructuring

1.

The Commission received an application by TELUS Communications (Québec) Inc. (TELUS Québec), dated 16 December 2003, to revise its General Tariff section 2.07, Intra-exchange distance charges, and section 4.01, Lease of channels, to restructure its local program circuit and leased channel service.

2.

In support of its application, TELUS Québec provided a cost justification to demonstrate that the proposed rates were compensatory.

3.

TELUS Québec further proposed to classify the new service elements to its Other capped services basket pursuant to Implementation of price regulation for Télébec and TELUS Québec, Telecom Decision CRTC 2002-43, 31 July 2002.

4.

The Commission received no comments with respect to the application.

5.

In Société en commandite Télébec and TELUS Communications (Québec) Inc. 2002 annual price cap filings, Telecom Decision CRTC 2003-57, 22 August 2003, the Commission concluded that TELUS Québec should file cost studies and imputation test results or alternate costing support, depending on the type of service, when filing tariff applications to introduce a new service or to propose implicit or explicit rate reductions to an existing service.

6.

The Commission is satisfied, based on the costing support provided by TELUS Québec, that the proposed rates are set above the associated cost.

7.

The Commission considers that this application does not raise any concerns regarding the price cap index for Other capped services. Accordingly, the Commission approves TELUS Québec's application. The revisions take effect as of 23 February 2004.
