Note 1: The CRTC retains respendable (vote netted) revenue to fund its operating budget
Note 2: The Commission’s broadcasting and telecommunications fee regulations have a provision whereby the Commission is able to adjust the annual fees (Part I Broadcasting Licence Fees and Telecommunications Fees) to take into account the Commission’s actual expenditures on both Broadcasting and Telecommunications activities during the fiscal year. The adjustments represent the difference between the estimated costs initially billed in a previous fiscal year and the actual costs incurred and are accounted for as non-respendable revenue.
In November 2007, Treasury Board approved a two-year increase to the Commission’s budget for fiscal years 2007-08 and 2008-09 (Broadcasting Circular CRTC 2007-9 and Telecom Circular CRTC 2007-18 dated December 21, 2007). The Commission’s actual expenses associated with this resource increase are being recovered as part of the annual billing adjustments for the telecommunications industry in 2008-09 and 2009-10 and for broadcasting licence fee payers in 2009-10 and 2010-11.
Note 3: The Broadcasting Licence Fee Regulations, 1997 were amended in 2010 for the Part II licence fees (Broadcasting Regulatory Policy CRTC 2010-476 dated 14 July 2010). A cap of $100 million was introduced for the calculation of Part II licence fees and this cap will be adjusted annually on a compound basis in accordance with the percentage increase or decrease to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the calendar year prior to the year of the adjustments. The CPI is the annual average all-items CPI for Canada that is published by Statistics Canada. The planned revenue figure for Part II licence fees will be adjusted and communicated to stakeholders once the CPI information is available. Further details are noted in Broadcasting Regulatory Policy CRTC 2010-476.
Note 4: The Telecommunications Fees Regulations amended in March 2010 (Telecom Decision CRTC 2010-183 dated 25 March 2010) require all telecommunications service providers (TSPs), or groups of related TSPs, with at least $10 million dollars in Canadian telecommunications service revenues (CTSR) to pay telecommunications fees. Further details are noted in Telecom Decision CRTC 2010-183.
Note 5: The Commission has statutory responsibility for the National Do Not Call List (DNCL), including additional enforcement tools, including the imposition of Administrative Monetary Penalties (AMPs) for telemarketer found to be in violation of Unsolicited Telecommunications Rules. The amounts recovered from the AMPs are deposited to the Consolidated Revenue Fund.
Note 6: Non-respendable revenue for Part I broadcasting-licence fees and CRTC telecommunications fees also recovers the costs incurred by other federal government departments for most services (excluding Industry Canada spectrum management) rendered without charge to the CRTC and the statutory costs of employee benefit plans. Part II broadcasting-licence fees are also considered to be non-respendable revenue.
