Erratum

  The Commission is issuing corrections to paragraphs 30, 39 and 42 of Bell Aliant - Applications for forbearance from the regulation of residential local exchange services, Telecom Decision CRTC 2007-59, 25 July 2007. The corrections are highlighted in bold italic below:
 

30. Accordingly, the Commission determines that Bell Aliant's competitor Q of S results meet the competitor Q of S criterion insofar as they relate to the Atlantic provinces portion of its serving territory.

 

39. Pursuant to subsection 34(1) of the Telecommunications Act (the Act), the Commission finds as a question of fact that a determination to forbear, to the extent specified in modified Telecom Decision 2006-15, from the regulation of the residential local exchange services listed in Appendix 1 and future services that fall within the definition of local exchange services set out in Telecom Public Notice 2005-2 as they pertain to residential customers only, in the 72 exchanges listed in Appendix 2, would be consistent with the Canadian telecommunications policy objectives set out in section 7 of the Act.

 

42. In light of the above, the Commission approves Bell Aliant's applications for forbearance from the regulation of the local exchange services listed in Appendix 1 and future services that fall within the definition of local exchange services set out in Telecom Public Notice 2005-2, as they pertain to residential customers only, in the 72 exchanges listed in Appendix 2, subject to the powers and duties that the Commission has retained as set out in modified Telecom Decision 2006-15. This determination takes effect as of the date of this Decision. The Commission directs Bell Aliant to file for Commission approval revised tariff pages within 30 days.
