Dear Sirs and Madam:

Re: Part VII Application to Review and Vary Part of Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2009-424, Revised regulatory requirements for management of customer accounts

On 11 August 2009, the Commission received a Part VII application by Bragg Communications Inc., Cogeco Cable Inc., Rogers Communications Inc., Shaw Communications Inc., and Quebecor Media Inc., on behalf of its affiliate Videotron Ltd. to review and vary Part of Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2009- 424, Revised regulatory requirements for management of customer accounts.

In Service standards for the disposition of telecommunications applications, Telecom Circular CRTC 2006-11, 7 December 2006, the Commission stated that it would categorize Part VII applications into two types: Type 1 applications that generally do not involve multiple parties or raise significant policy issues and Type 2 applications that do involve multiple parties and/or raise significant policy issues.

The Commission also adopted the following service standards for Part VII applications:

The Commission stated that it would inform applicants, by letter, within 10 days of the end of the comment period for applications, whether the application is considered to be a Type 1 or Type 2 application, and of the applicable service standard.

Commission staff has assessed the above application and considers it to be a Type 1 application. Accordingly, the Commission expects to issue an interim or final determination within 4 months of the close-of-record.

Yours sincerely,

Original signed by:

John Macri
