Dear Mr. Armstrong:

Re:   Tariff Notice 127 - Destandardization of Microlink Service Term Contracts

On 24 November 2006 , the Commission received an application by Saskatchewan Telecommunications (SaskTel), under cover of tariff notice 127, in which it proposed to destandardize the contract terms for 1 year, 3 years and 5 years presently offered under SaskTel's General Tariff, Item 110.34 Microlink Service.

As SaskTel has a number of customers currently subscribing to the service in question, consideration of the application was deferred, pursuant to the procedure established in New procedures for disposition of applications dealing with the destandardization and/or withdrawal of tariffed services , Telecom Circular 2005-7, for 45 calendar days to allow for customer comments.

In light of perceived inconsistencies between the information contained in the notice to affected customers and the language in the proposed tariff pages, the Commission will be unable to dispose of this application within 45 business days from the date of its filing.   However, the Commission expects to render its decision by the end of February 2007.

Yours sincerely,

'Original signed by S. Bédard '

Suzanne Bédard
Senior Manager, Tariffs
