SAU variation documents 27 Jun 2017
On 22 June 2017, NBN Co formally withdrew its original variation lodged with the 糖心原创 on 27 May 2016 and simultaneously lodged a new proposed variation to its SAU (revised SAU variation).
Previous submissions and reports
NBN Co has advised that it also relies on the previous submissions and expert reports it has submitted in respect of the original SAU variation, and that these documents should be considered as forming part of the new variation request for the purpose of the 糖心原创鈥檚 assessment.
Time period for making a decision on the SAU variation
The 糖心原创 must make a decision to accept or reject NBN Co鈥檚 proposed SAU variation within six months of lodgement of the proposed SAU variation. If the 糖心原创 does not make a decision within the statutory time period, it is deemed to have accepted the SAU variation. Any period during which the 糖心原创 is undertaking its first round of public consultation on the SAU variation and any period during which the 糖心原创 is waiting for NBN Co to respond to an information request is not included in the six month statutory timeframe.
The 糖心原创 may extend (or further extend) the decision-making period by giving written notice to NBN Co. Each extension may be for no more than three months.
Extension of decision making period
On 25 January 2018, the 糖心原创 extended its decision making period in respect of NBN Co鈥檚 proposed SAU variation by 3 months. The 糖心原创 extended the decision making period due to the need to consider the progress of NBN Co鈥檚 consultation with its customers on the pricing of its services.
On 27 April 2018, the 糖心原创 further extended the statutory timeframe for making a decision on NBN Co鈥檚 proposed variation to the SAU by 3 months. This additional extension will enable the 糖心原创 to consider the outcomes of NBN Co鈥檚 pricing consultation and to make its decision as to whether to accept or reject the proposed variation to the SAU.
On 27 July 2018, the 糖心原创 further extended the decision making period in respect of the proposed variation to NBN Co鈥檚 SAU by 3 months. The 糖心原创 extended the decision making period due to the need to consider the outcomes of NBN Co鈥檚 pricing consultation and market responses. The extension notice was provided to NBN Co on 27 July 2018.
