Decision

Ottawa, 18 August 1997
Decision CRTC 97-470
Shaw Cablesystems Ltd.
Paisley, Ontario - 199612909
Licence renewal
1. Following Public Notice CRTC 1997-56 dated 8 May 1997, the Commission renews the Class 2 (fewer than 2,000 subscribers) licence held by Shaw Cablesystems Ltd., for the cable distribution undertaking serving Paisley, from 1 September 1997 to 31 August 2004.
2. The operation of this undertaking is regulated pursuant to Parts I, III and IV of the Cable Television Regulations, 1986 (the regulations) and the licence will be subject to the conditions in effect under the current licence, as well as to those conditions specified in this decision and in the licence to be issued.
3. In addition to the services required or authorized to be distributed pursuant to the applicable sections of the regulations, the licensee is authorized, by condition of licence, to continue to distribute, at its option, CITY-TV-2 Woodstock, received via microwave, as part of the basic service.
4. It is a condition of licence that, for community programming and any other programming of a service that it originates, the licensee adhere to the guidelines on the depiction of violence in television programming set out in the Canadian Association of Broadcasters' Voluntary Code Regarding Violence in Television Programming, as amended from time to time and approved by the Commission.
5. The Commission notes that this licensee is subject to the Employment Equity Act that came into effect on 24 October 1996 (1996 EEA), and therefore files reports concerning employment equity with Human Resources Development Canada. As a result of a consequential amendment to the Broadcasting Act, the Commission no longer has the authority to apply its employment equity policy to any undertaking that is subject to the 1996 EEA.
This decision is to be appended to the licence.
