Bell Canada also reported, however, that the implementation of the repair module of CLEC access to incumbent local exchange carriers' (ILECs) OSS would be delayed due to performance and functional issues discovered during the testing phase. Bell Canada submitted that it would aggressively work to resolve the outstanding issues in order to implement access to its repair OSS in a timely manner.
