RE: Further process – Review of mobile wireless services, Telecom Notice of Consultation 2019-57 – Procedural Request of the Commissioner of Competition – seeking the issuance of a request for information
Dear Madams, Sirs:
On 8 March 2019 the Commission received a letter from the Commissioner of Competition (the Commissioner), which requested that the Commission issue requests for information to wireless service providers (WSPs), and disclose, or require disclosure to the Commissioner of, any information filed in response that is designated as confidential pursuant to paragraph 39(4)(b) of the Telecommunications Act (the Act).
The Commission is in receipt of letters dated 25 March 2019 and 27 March 2019, submitted by Rogers Communications Canada Inc., and Bell Mobility Inc., which comment on the Commissioner’s request.
Commission staff hereby sets out the following process with respect to this matter:
- WSPs or any other interested persons may provide their views on the Commissioner’s request by 2 April 2019;
- The Commissioner may file reply comments by 5 April 2019.
Further, the deadline for the Commissioner to file a response to the Commission’s letter, dated 25 March 2019, is extended from 1 April 2019 to 5 April 2019.
Persons filing comments are not required to address the Commissioner’s request that information designated as confidential be disclosed pursuant to paragraph 39(4)(b) of the Act. The issue of disclosure will be dealt with subsequently.
Where a document is to be filed or served by a specific date, the document must be actually received, not merely sent, by that date.
Sincerely,
Original signed by
