Mr. Richard Banks Dear Mr. Banks: Re: Tariff Notice 34 - Miscellaneous services On 16 February 2005 , the Commission received an application from Mornington Communications Co-operative Limited (Mornington) under cover of Tariff Notice 34, which proposes revisions to its General Tariff, section 490, Miscellaneous services, to increase rates and to provide customers with an incentive to purchase additional Miscellaneous services. In Regulatory framework for the small incumbent telephone companies , Decision CRTC 2001-756, 14 December 2001 , the Commission assigned the above noted services to the fourth basket. The Commission determined that rates for services in the fourth basket would generally be permitted to increase up to any already approved rate for the same service and that tariff applications should reference when and where the Commission had approved that rate. The Commission also determined that, for rate increases that would go beyond an already approved rate, an economic study must accompany the application. Commission staff notes that Mornington did not provide complete references to already approved rates related to each of the individual rate components proposed, or submit an economic study in support of such proposed rates. In addition, in section 490, item 8.02, page 5 of the proposed tariff, the company denoted a rate increase or change without providing the new rate nor addressing this revision in the cover letter. Consequently, this application is closed. However, the Commission is open to examining a new application from the company containing the missing information. The application must be filed under cover of a new tariff notice. Sincerely, 'Original signed by S. Hutton '
