of the time limit to commence the operation of the Category 2 specialty
programming undertaking authorized in WTM is to be licensed as
a new, national, Category 2 specialty television service for digital

However, the Commission considers it appropriate to grant an extension
of twelve months rather than the fifteen months requested by the applicant. |

This is the applicant’s second request for
an extension of the time limit to commence the operation of this
undertaking. |

the deadline by which the operation of this specialty service must
commence. This is the final extension to be granted by the Commission
with respect to the implementation of this service. |

The licence for this undertaking will be
issued once the applicant has informed the Commission in writing that
it is prepared to commence operations. The authority granted in Decision

void should the licensee fail to meet the new implementation deadline
set out above. |
