| Footnotes:
1 An
ex parte application is an application that has been filed
with the Commission without notice to the public and, as such,
is not placed on the public record when initially filed. An ex parte
decision is one in which the Commission disposes of an application
solely on the basis of the applicant's submissions. Subsection 61(3)
of the Telecommunications Act allows the Commission to make
an ex parte decision where it considers that the circumstances
of the case justify it. In Review of regulatory framework,
Telecom Decision CRTC 94-19,
16 September 1994, the Commission set out several considerations
to be balanced in any determination to permit ex parte tariff
filings, including the public interest in the effective operation
of the competitive marketplace and the public interest in an open
regulatory process.
2 Finalization
of a streamlined process for retail tariff filings, Telecom
Circular CRTC 2005-9,
1 November 2005.
