2004-50 The
Commission applies the determinations made in Decision 2002-76, with respect
to the location and operation of Bell Canada's Carrier Services Group
(CSG), to other large incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs). The Commission
determines that such ILECs must be the operators of the CSG for their
tariffed services, and that no employee of any of the other large ILECs'
affiliates can have any responsibility for the ILEC's CSG operations.
The Commission also confirms its preliminary view set out in Decision
2002-76 that a Canadian carrier subject to common control with an ILEC
(affiliated carrier) will be required to comply with section 25 and other
applicable provisions of the Telecommunications Act whenever the affiliated
ILEC would be required to do so. When examining a proposed tariff filed
by an affiliated carrier, the Commission will apply the same criteria,
with respect to the imputation test and the bundling rules, as it would
apply if the tariff were filed by the affiliated ILEC. Reference: 8638-C12-79/02.
