The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) today released a public notice asking for input on the development and operation of a National Do Not Call List (DNCL) and on telemarketing rules.
The CRTC has been authorized to establish a national DNCL, select a third-party administrator for the national DNCL, and to levy administrative monetary penalties.
Anyone interested in commenting without participating in the full public process, may do so in writing via mail, fax, or on a web-form at www.crtc.gc.ca or by calling toll-free, 1-866-481-3838 by May 10, 2006.
The Commission will be holding a public proceeding to address many issues such as specific DNCL rules and which, if any, of the existing telemarketing rules continue to be necessary and appropriate
Interested parties wishing to participate in the formal public process, including receiving copies of all submissions, must notify the CRTC in writing or by filling out an on-line form indicating their intention to do so by March 6, 2006.
A public consultation will be held in Gatineau, Quebec from May 2-5, 2006. |
