CRTC Consultation - Should Consumer Registrations be Permanent

In Public Notice 2008-14 the CRTC issued a call for comments on three issues as follows:

  1. Should calls related to candidates running for election be excluded from DNCL rules?
     
  2. Should consumer registrations on the DNCL be permanent? Given that the removal of disconnected and re-assigned telephone numbers from the D NCL could be costly, it was determined that DNCL registrations would only be valid for 3 years.  The CRTC invites comments on whether there is a cost effective way to remove disconnected and re-assigned numbers, and whether this should be done to make consumer DNCL registrations permanent.
     
  3. Should rules for ADAD calls for purposes other than for solicitation ( e.g. collection on overdue accounts)  be maintained to the effect that calling hour restrictions in provincial legislation apply only if they are more restrictive than the calling hours set by the CRTC ?

Parties interested in participating in the process must file notification by October 30.  Comments are due by December 4 and reply comments by December 19th.  The CRTC will make its decision on the issues within 3 months.  All information will be posted on the CRTC’s website.
