The objective of Part XIC
The requirement to make a determination under s152AQB arises within Part XIC of the TPA. The object of Part XIC is to promote the long-term interests of end-users (LTIE) of carriage services or of services provided by means of carriage services.15 This will partly be achieved through establishing the rights of third parties to gain access to services which are necessary for competitive services to be supplied to end-users, including through the non-price terms and conditions on which access is provided. Accordingly, in making a determination that sets out model non-price terms and conditions, the Commission is seeking to promote the LTIE.
