RE: Application made on behalf of the City of Hamilton (City) with respect to the establishment of a Municipal Access Agreement between the City and Bell Canada – Request to strike parts of the responses to Interrogatories
In the above referenced application, Commission staff issued, on 2 June 2015, interrogatories to both the City of Hamilton (City) and Bell Canada. In its 23 June 2015 responses to these interrogatories, Bell Canada submitted responses, commentaries and analysis that appeared to go beyond what was requested as part of the interrogatories. Nonetheless, in a Commission staff letter dated 30 June 2015, Commission staff invited the City to make submissions going to the substance of the additional responses, commentaries and analysis made by Bell Canada in its 23 June 2015 responses.
In a letter dated 3 July 2015, the City requested the following:
- That the Commission strike out Bell Canada’s entire 23 June 2015 response to the interrogatories, and order Bell Canada to resubmit its response, answering only the questions addressed to Bell Canada in the 2 June 2015 interrogatories.
- Alternatively, that the Commission strike from the record Attachments “B” and “C” of Bell Canada’s 23 June 2015 response to the interrogatories, and all portions of Attachment “A” that did not answer specific questions addressed to Bell Canada in the 2 June 2015 interrogatories.
Bell Canada may, by 8 July 2015, submit with the Commission a response to the City’s 3 July 2015 request. The City will have until 9 July 2015 to submit a final reply. Parties are to serve copies of their submissions to each other.
Sincerely,
