The determination ensures that telecommunications carriers (rather than general taxpayers) bear the cost of the industry-specific regulation that applies to them."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/f2005l00689","history":"/api/acts/f2005l00689/history","analysis":"/api/acts/f2005l00689/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/f2005l00689/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/f2005l00689/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/f2005l00689/documents"}}
