Decision

Ottawa, 21 September 1995
Decision CRTC 95-692
Quebec and Ontario
Applications to insert certain promotional material in the local availabilities of U.S. satellite services
Following Public Notice CRTC 1995-116 dated 13 July 1995, the Commission approves the applications by licensees of the cable distribution undertakings listed in the appendix to this decision, for authority to alter the signals of U.S. satellite services for the insertion of promotional material in the local availabilities of those services by adding the following condition of licence:
 The licensee may, at its option, insert certain promotional material as a substitute for the "local availabilities" (i.e. non-Canadian advertising material) of non-Canadian satellite services. At least 75% of these local availabilities must be made available for use by licensed Canadian programming services for the promotion of their respective services, for the promotion of the community channel and for unpaid Canadian public service announcements. A maximum of 25% of the local availabilities may be made available for the promotion of discretionary programming services and packages, customer service information, channel realignments, cable FM service and additional cable outlets.
This amendment is consistent with the approach taken by the Commission in Decision CRTC 95-12 dated 18 January 1995.
The Commission reminds licensees that it is not prepared to consider applications to use such availabilities for the broadcast of commercial advertising.
The Commission acknowledges the interventions in support of these applications.
