Notice of hearing

June 20, 2011 Gatineau, Quebec Review of the regulatory framework relating to vertical integration — Additional issue Deadline for submission of interventions and/or comments: April 27, 2011

Further to Broadcasting Notice of Consultation 2010-783, the Commission would like to inform interested parties of an additional matter that it wishes to consider as part of this proceeding.

In Public Notice 1996-69, the Commission eliminated the application of the benefits test in the case of transfers of ownership or changes in control of distribution undertakings. The Commission concluded that, “with adoption by the Commission of a policy that removes all or most of the existing licensing restrictions on market entry and which, in fact, encourages the imminent entry of new competitors using a variety of distribution technologies, the underlying rationale for applying the benefits test in considering future applications for authority to transfer the ownership or control of distribution undertakings has essentially disappeared.”

In light of the growing trend of industry consolidation and vertical integration, the Commission would like to examine whether the above determination on the application of the benefits tests should be upheld or reversed.

Interested parties who wish to comment on this matter may do so on or before April 27, 2011.

ORDER 2011-147

Broadcasting licence fees — Part I

1. The Broadcasting Licence Fee Regulations, 1997 (the Regulations) provide for the payment of a Part I licence fee by certain broadcasting undertakings. Subsection 9(1) of the Regulations sets out the components for the calculation of the regulatory costs.

2. Pursuant to section 10 of the Regulations, the Commission announces in this public notice that the estimated total broadcasting regulatory costs of the Commission for the 2011–2012 fiscal year are $29.881 million.

3. The annual adjustment amount referred to in subsection 8(2) for the 2009–2010 fiscal year is $2.060 million.

4. The net billing for the Part I licence fee for the 2011–2012 fiscal year, taking into account the adjustment in paragraph 3 above, is $31.941 million. This amount is $3.871 million lower (i.e. a 10.8% decrease) than the 2010–2011 net billing of $35.812 million. This decrease is due primarily to the end of two years of temporary funding for the CRTC’s broadcasting activities announced in Notification of a temporary increase to CRTC Part I Broadcasting Licence Fees and Telecommunications Fees, Broadcasting Circular CRTC 2007-9, December 21, 2007.
