Subject: Bell Canada Tariff Notice 7676 – Disaggregated Broadband Service – Introduction of New Speed Tiers
On 23 October 2023, the Commission received an application from Bell Canada proposing new service speed tiers for Disaggregated Broadband Service in Bell Canada’s Access Services Tariff, CRTC 7516, Item 151 – Disaggregated Broadband Service.
As noted in Notice of Consultation 2023-56 - Notice of hearing – Review of the wholesale high-speed access service framework, paragraph 83:
- Given the importance of the above-identified issues and the resources required to address these matters in a timely fashion, the Commission considers that new applications or tariffs that are filed over the course of this proceeding on other wholesale HSA-related matters that fall outside the scope of this review will be subject to delays or will be deferred until this review is completed. Any parties making such filings will be duly advised.
As the above noted tariff notice pertains to the high-speed access service, and considering that Commission staff is continuing its analysis of this application, this application will not be disposed of by the 45th business day following receipt. However, the Commission intends to issue a decision by the end of April 2024.
Sincerely,
