On 12 December 2007, the Commerce Commission ("Commission") made a standard terms determination ("STD"), under section 30M of the Telecommunications
Act 2001 ("the Act"), in respect of the designated
access service of Telecom’s Unbundled Bitstream Access ("Decision 611").
Section 30R of the Act provides that the Commission may, on its own initiative, commence a review, at any time, of
all or any of the terms specified in a STD.
Pursuant to this provision, the Commission is giving public notice that it has launched a review of the cost of data transmission determined in Decision 611.
This cost is deducted from the retail price of relevant broadband services in order to calculate the wholesale price of the Unbundled Bitstream Access (UBA) Service.
A copy of the request for information for the review
(due 22 March 2010) is available on the Commission’s website at
