"What to include when proposing standard terms for a telecommunications service"

Illustration for Telecommunications Act 2001

When you make a standard terms proposal, it must include some important details. You need to specify the terms that allow the access service to be made available within certain time frames. You also need to explain and give reasons for those terms.

You have to state the time frames for making the service available to people who are already access seekers and those who become access seekers later. Your proposal must be consistent with the description of the service in Part 2 or Part 3 of Schedule 1, and with the applicable access principles.

Your proposal must also comply with any additional requirements that the Commission has specified under section 30F(2). If you include the price payable for the service, it must be the price determined in accordance with the applicable initial or final pricing principle in a previous determination made under section 27. The Commission may refuse to consider your proposal if it does not comply with these rules or if it is submitted late.
