Ottawa, 26 January 2001
|
| |
Proposals to amend the lists of eligible satellite services through the inclusion of additional non-Canadian services eligible for distribution on a digital basis only
|
| |
Following Public Notice CRTC 2000-173, the Commission received a proposal by the Canadian Cable Television Association (CCTA) to add a number of non-Canadian programming services to the lists of eligible satellite services (the lists). While the proposal was received by the deadline of 12 January, the CCTA indicated it would be unable to file all of the required documentation before 12 February 2001. The Commission has approved the CCTA's request to extend the deadline until that date. The publication of all proposed additions to the lists originally planned for 26 January is therefore delayed.

On the deadline date of 12 January 2001, the CCTA filed a proposal to add a number of non-Canadian programming services to the new list of eligible satellite services, but was unable to file all of the required documentation for each of the services on that date. The CCTA indicated that it would provide the Commission with the remaining required documentation no later than 12 February 2001.

The Commission wishes to state that the present notice is not an extension of the deadline date of the call for proposals to amend the lists. As part of the process outlined in Public Notice
