LetterOttawa, 21 November 2005 File Number: 8622-B2- 200505068 By E-mail All Interested parties to Bell and SaskTel Part VII - Winback Rules Dear Sir/Madam: Re: Part VII filed by Bell Canada and Saskatchewan Telecommunications Requesting the Commission to discontinue applying local service winback rules- Extension of time The Commission is in receipt of a letter dated 17 November 2005 from t he Canadian Cable Telecommunications Association (CCTA) requesting that the Commission: • Direct TELUS to provide immediately for the public record an abridged version of each of the interrogatory responses filed with the Commission on 14 November 2005 . • Amend the procedures for filing of comments by parties to no earlier than 17 days following the date that revised interrogatory responses are filed by TELUS for the public record. This amendment would afford parties with the same amount of time from the filing of TELUS' interrogatory responses to prepare comments as was originally contemplated in the Commission's letter of 24 October 2005 . In a response dated 18 November 2005, Bell Canada ( Bell ) and Saskatchewan Telecommunications ( SaskTel) (collectively the Companies), stated that t hey were not opposed to maintaining the 17-day time period for parties to review interrogatory responses and supplemental comments and file comments relative to that provided for under the 24 October 2005 Process Letter, provided this does not have the effect of prolonging this proceeding beyond the 12 December 2005 date on which the record is scheduled to close. The Companies proposed the following amendments to the process for this proceeding: - The Companies file and serve supplementary comments on the Decision 2005-28-1 version of the winback rule and responses to interrogatories by 23 November 2005 . - Parties other than the Companies file and serve their comments by 5 December 2005 . - The Companies file and serve reply comments on other parties' comments by 12 December 2005 . In light of circumstances, Commission staff consider that the revised dates proposed by the Companies are appropriate and are, therefore, hereby adopted. Subsequent to this letter, on 18 November 2005 , TELUS filed abridged versions of each of their interrogatories responses for the public record. Accordingly, further action in response to the CCTA's first request above is not warranted. Parties are reminded that documents to be filed pursuant to this letter must actually be received, and not merely sent, by the dates indicated.
Sincerely,
