|
Finalization of the assignment of Northwestel Inc.'s services to the service baskets
|
|
|
Reference: 8638-C12-200701913
|
|
|
In this Decision, the Commission finalizes the assignment of Northwestel Inc.'s services to the service baskets established in Price cap regulation for Northwestel Inc., Telecom Decision CRTC 2007-5, 2 February 2007.
|
|
|
Background
|
|
1.
|
In Price cap regulation for Northwestel Inc., Telecom Decision CRTC 2007-5, 2 February 2007 (Decision 2007-5), the Commission, among other things, set out the price cap regime applicable to Northwestel Inc. (Northwestel) and established a service basket structure which included six service baskets1 with associated pricing constraints.
|
|
2.
|
In Decision 2007-5, the Commission stated that its determinations with respect to the basket structure and pricing constraints, as well as the assignment of services to each of the baskets, took into consideration other determinations made in the Decision. The Commission stated that it relied on the service basket structure and pricing constraints set out in the Decision to provide the company with the appropriate incentives to be efficient and to provide adequate protection to consumers. The Commission considered that its approved basket structure would provide the company with adequate incentives to increase efficiencies, a degree of certainty, and a level of simplicity to the price cap framework, as well as substantially reduce the regulatory burden.
|
|
3.
|
Parties to the proceeding that led to Decision 2007-5 were given the opportunity to comment on the Commission's assignment of services to the six service baskets.2
|
|
4.
|
Northwestel filed its comments on 16 February 2007. Northwestel proposed that certain services that had been assigned to the Other Capped Services basket in Decision 2007-5 be reassigned to the Uncapped Services basket. The company also proposed assignments for services not dealt with in Decision 2007-5, but for which there were currently tariffs.
|
|
5.
|
Northwestel submitted that, in Price cap regulation and related issues, Telecom Decision CRTC 97-9, 1 May 1997, Regulatory framework for the small incumbent telephone companies, Decision CRTC 2001-756, 14 December 2001 (Decision 2001-756), and Regulatory framework for second price cap period, Telecom Decision CRTC 2002-34, 30 May 2002, as amended by Telecom Decision CRTC 2002-34-1, 15 July 2002 (Decision 2002-34), the Commission took into account a number of important considerations when designing the basket structures for the large and small southern incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs). Northwestel submitted that these same considerations should also apply to the company, with modifications to be made only to reflect the unique operating environment of the North.
|
|
6.
|
The Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) filed reply comments on 5 March 2007.
|
|
7.
|
The Commission considers that the submissions made by Northwestel and the GNWT raise the following issues:
|
|
|
I. The reasonableness of Northwestel's proposed reassignments of a number of services from the Other Capped Services basket to the Uncapped Services basket.
|
|
|
II. The reasonableness of Northwestel's proposed assignments for services that were not dealt with in Decision 2007-5.
|
|
|
I. Reassignment of services from the Other Capped Services basket to the Uncapped Services basket
|
|
8.
|
Northwestel proposed to reassign a number of services from the Other Capped Services basket to the Uncapped Services basket. Each of these proposals is discussed in detail below.
|
|
|
A. Centrex Access and Business and Centrex Optional Features
|
|
9.
|
Northwestel opposed the assignment of Centrex Access service and Business and Centrex Optional Features, including Business Prestige Numbers and Web listings, to the Other Capped Services basket. Northwestel argued that the pricing constraint imposed by their inclusion in the Other Capped Services basket was more stringent than the pricing constraint on services in the Business Services basket and was not consistent with the pricing constraints established for the ILECs in the South. Northwestel submitted that these services should be assigned to the Uncapped Services basket.
|
|
10.
|
Northwestel noted that the services in the Other Capped Services basket were constrained by the weighted average price, which cannot increase, while services in the Business Services basket were constrained by inflation overall and a 10 percent rate element constraint. Northwestel argued that Centrex Access service was a business access service with competition faced from substitute Multi-line services, including private branch exchange, key systems, and software based customer premise telephone systems. Northwestel submitted that the constraint on Centrex Access service was administratively redundant because a constraint already applied to Multi-line services and pricing of alternative services would constrain its ability to adjust Centrex Access rates independently of Multi-line services.
|
|
11.
|
Northwestel noted that, in Decision 2002-34, the Commission assigned Centrex service to the Uncapped Services basket. Northwestel noted that the Commission considered that Centrex service was a premium business service that was used as a substitute for single-line and multi-line business local exchange services. Northwestel also noted that the Commission determined that since business services were subject to a basket constraint and a rate element constraint, the Commission did not consider it necessary to subject Centrex services to such constraints.
|
|
12.
|
Northwestel submitted that, as the nature of Multi-line services and Centrex Access service were the same in the North as they were in the South, the Commission's treatment of Centrex Access service should be consistent with that applied in the South. Northwestel argued that facilities-based competition was not necessary for Centrex competition, and that the opportunity for Centrex resale in the North would be an adequate market constraint to keep pricing in line with market conditions.
|
|
13.
|
With respect to Business and Centrex Optional Features, Northwestel noted that, in Decision 2002-34, the Commission assigned these services to the Uncapped Services basket stating that it was not necessary to apply constraints to such services in view of the fact that there were substitutes available. Northwestel submitted that its Business Optional Features were discretionary and in many cases competed directly with high-end equipment features which could provide many of the optional features provided by switch-based technologies. Northwestel further submitted that Centrex Optional Features must be priced appropriately to compete with features provided by substitute phone systems.
|
|
14.
|
With respect to Business Prestige Numbers and Web Listings, Northwestel submitted that these services were highly discretionary and were not capped for any other large ILEC.
|
|
15.
|
The GNWT opposed Northwestel's proposal to reassign Centrex Access service and Business and Centrex Optional Features to the Uncapped Services basket. The GNWT noted the Commission's determinations that, given that facilities-based local competition would not be permitted at this time, it was appropriate to assign residential and business optional services, voice messaging services, calling features, and Centrex services to the Other Capped Services basket. The GNWT submitted that Northwestel had failed to demonstrate that the Commission's finding was in error.
|
|
16.
|
The GNWT noted that it was a major user of Business and Centrex Optional services and that the financial impact on it could be severe if adequate pricing constraints were not retained for these services until such time as facilities-based local competition emerged. The GNWT submitted that, until that time, it remained appropriate to assign Centrex Access service and Business and Centrex Optional Features to the Other Capped Services basket.
|
|
|
Commission's analysis and determinations
|
|
17.
|
The Commission notes that Centrex Access service and Business and Centrex Optional Features were assigned to the Uncapped Services basket in Decision 2002-34.3 In that Decision, the Commission was of the view that providing regulatory protection to customers of primary exchange service where market forces were not sufficient was an important consideration. The Commission noted that Centrex Access service was a premium business service that was used as a substitute for single-line and multi-line business local exchange services, and since these services were subject to a basket constraint and a rate element constraint, the Commission did not consider it necessary to subject Centrex Access services to such constraints. With respect to Business Optional Local services or to service bundles that included a business local exchange service or a business optional local service, the Commission stated that it did not consider it necessary to apply constraints given the availability of substitutes.
|
|
18.
|
In the case of Decision 2001-756, Centrex service and Business and Centrex Optional Features were assigned to the fourth basket for the small ILECs (SILECs). The SILECs were permitted to propose rate changes to services in this basket to match the rate approved for the same service offered by another ILEC or SILEC.
|
|
19.
|
The Commission remains of the view that single-line and multi-line business services would be a substitute for Centrex Access services and would serve to constrain the pricing for Centrex Access services. The Commission considers that assigning Northwestel's Centrex Access service to the Uncapped Services basket would provide the company with pricing flexibility similar to that which is available to the other ILECs and SILECs. Accordingly, the Commission finds that it would be reasonable to reassign Northwestel's Centrex Access service to the company's Uncapped Services basket. The Commission further finds that, consistent with this assignment, it is also reasonable to assign Centrex Optional Features to the Uncapped Services basket.
|
|
20.
|
The Commission considers that, in the absence of facilities-based local competition and with no cap on Centrex Optional Features, approval of Northwestel's proposal to uncap business optional services, such as Voice Messaging Service, Enhanced Calling Features, Business Prestige Numbers, and Web Listings, would remove any price protection and reduce the incentive for Northwestel to achieve efficiencies for these services. Further, the Commission notes that Business Prestige Numbers have been included in the Other Capped Services basket for the large ILECs.
|
|
21.
|
Accordingly, the Commission finds that Business Optional Features, including Business Prestige Numbers and Web Listings, are to remain assigned to the Other Capped Services basket.
|
|
|
B. Competitive equipment
|
|
22.
|
Northwestel noted that the Commission had included a number of equipment services in the Other Capped Services basket, which it submitted should be uncapped. Northwestel submitted that imposing a price cap on equipment was unnecessary given that the telecommunications equipment market for both residential and business equipment was extremely competitive and that there were a number of other sources where such equipment could be purchased, such as, outlets, box stores, and retail outlets. Northwestel submitted that the competitive equipment market in the North was as competitive as in the South.
|
|
|
Commission's analysis and determinations
|
|
23.
|
The Commission notes that, in Review of regulatory framework, Telecom Decision CRTC 94-19, 16 September 1994, it found it appropriate to forbear from the regulation of competitive terminal equipment for the large southern ILECs.
|
|
24.
|
The Commission considers that the equipment identified in the tariffs is generally available for purchase from competitive equipment providers. The Commission is of the view that it would be appropriate to assign such equipment to the Uncapped Services basket.
|
|
25.
|
However, with respect to Emergency Alerting Systems, Westcom 931 Alerting System - Multi-plan Service,4 the Commission notes that this equipment/service is used in remote sites and is related to safety issues. Accordingly, the Commission considers that it is appropriate to retain this service in the Other Capped Services basket.
|
|
26.
|
In light of the above, the Commission finds it appropriate to reassign the competitive equipment identified by Northwestel, with the exception of Emergency Alerting Systems, Westcom 931 Alerting System - Multi-plan Service, to the Uncapped Services basket. Emergency Alerting Systems, Westcom 931 Alerting System - Multi-plan Service will remain in the Other Capped Services basket.
|
|
|
C. Labour-based services
|
|
27.
|
Northwestel submitted that the residential and business inside wire market was highly competitive and that in virtually all communities there were electricians who provided this service. Northwestel argued that labour services for which the company faced significant competition, such as labour services for inside wire and maintenance of business equipment services, should therefore be assigned to the Uncapped Services basket.
|
|
28.
|
Northwestel submitted that core labour services associated with the provision of its local access services, which are generally not subject to competition, should continue to be included in the Other Capped Services basket.
|
|
29.
|
The GNWT opposed Northwestel's proposal to move inside wire labour services to the Uncapped Services basket, citing the limited availability of alternatives in some remote communities.
|
|
|
Commission's analysis and determinations
|
|
30.
|
The Commission notes that, in Follow-up to Regulatory framework for second price cap period, Telecom Decision CRTC 2002-34 - Service basket assignment, Telecom Decision CRTC 2003-11, 18 March 2003, as amended by Telecom Decision CRTC 2003-11-1, 23 May 2003, the Commission denied the large ILECs' proposals to reassign several labour-based services to the Uncapped Services basket from the Other Capped Services basket. In reaching its conclusions in that Decision, the Commission considered that (a) productivity improvements would be reflected in the time required to perform the associated tasks, (b) moving these services to the Uncapped Services basket was not an acceptable solution as customers often had no alternative but to go to the ILECs to obtain such services, and (c) the constraint on other capped services applied at the basket level which permitted ILECs to choose whether to adjust the rates for services rated on the basis of an hourly labour rate.
|
|
31.
|
In addition, the Commission noted, with respect to the inside wire market, that while competition was permitted, it was not persuaded that there was sufficient evidence to conclude that pricing constraints were not required to discipline the prices for various Jack and Plug services.
|
|
32.
|
In the case of Northwestel, the Commission considers that maintaining labour-based services in the Other Capped Services basket will encourage the company to improve efficiencies in offering these services to the greatest extent possible. In addition, as noted by the GNWT, there could be concerns as to availability of such services in some remote communities. In light of this, and for the same reasons outlined in Decision 2002-34 with respect to the classification of such services, the Commission determines that these services will remain in the Other Capped Services basket.
|
|
|
II. Assignment of services previously not listed
|
|
|
Commission's analysis and determinations
|
|
33.
|
The Commission has reviewed Northwestel's list of services for which there are currently tariffs but which were not included in the list of assigned services in Decision 2007-5. The Commission considers that the proposed assignments are consistent with the treatment of such services for the other ILECs and SILECs and are consistent with the determinations in this Decision and in Decision 2007-5. Accordingly, the Commission finds the proposed assignment of these services to be appropriate.
|
|
|
Other matters
|
|
34.
|
The Commission notes that it has removed from the service baskets several general items that do not require assignment as there are no rates associated with the item or the item references other tariffed items for the appropriate rates. In addition, some services have been reassigned in order to better reflect the Commission's determinations in Decision 2007-5 and this Decision.
|
|
35.
|
The revised assignment of Northwestel's services to baskets, reflecting the Commission's determinations in Decision 2007-5 and this Decision, is provided in the appendix.
|
|
36.
|
Northwestel is directed to file, within 10 business days from the date of this Decision, its service basket limits and service basket indices, with supporting calculations, formulae and spreadsheets, for each basket of services, as applicable.
