Dear Mr. Woodhead:
Re : Part VII application for forbearance from the regulation of residential local exchange services in the exchange of Saint-Agapit, Quebec
On 16 July 2009, the Commission received the above-mentioned Part VII application by TELUS Communications Company (TCC). In this application, TCC asked for forbearance based on the regulatory frameworks of Telecom Decision 94-19 and modified Telecom Decision 2006-15.
Commission staff notes that the forbearance criteria in modified Telecom Decision 2006-15 replace the criteria that were established in Telecom Decision 94-19. Therefore, TCC’s application will be judged with the criteria established in modified Telecom Decision
2006-15, including the competitor quality of service criterion. Pursuant to Telecom Decision 2009-514, the Commission will consider TCC’s application when it files revised results for quality of service indicator 1.19 that reflect the determinations set out in that decision with regard to the “no facilities available” definition, or explain why revised results are not required.
Yours sincerely,
