Re: Telecom Notice of Consultation CRTC 2011-77 – Requests for modifying the scope and terms of the proceeding

The Commission is in receipt of a letter dated 10 February 2011 from the Public Interest Advocacy Centre (PIAC) on its own behalf and as counsel to the Consumers’ Association of Canada (CAC) requesting that the Commission expand the scope of the proceeding to consider the utility of usage-based billing as an Internet Traffic Management Practice for all retail customers.  PIAC and CAC further requested the removal of the first subparagraph (i) of paragraph 12 and subparagraph (ii) of paragraph 13 of the Notice of Consultation.

The Commission is also in receipt of a letter dated 11 February 2011 from the Canadian Network Operators Consortium (CNOC) requesting that the Commission expand the scope of the proceeding to include a review of the regulatory framework for wholesale high-speed access services.  CNOC also requested the Commission to establish online consultations and an oral public hearing as part of this proceeding at the outset as well as other modifications to the structure of the proceeding.

All parties may file comments with the Commission regarding the requests from PIAC and CAC and from CNOC, serving copies on all other parties by 22 February 2011.

The above material must be received, not merely sent, by the above date.

Yours sincerely,

‘Original signed by J. Macri’
