SCHEDULE 1
Principles relating to the price of access to the ISDN Originating Service and the ISDN Terminating Service
Wherever it is reasonably practicable to do so, the price of the ISDN Originating Service and the ISDN Terminating Service should be set equal to the total service long run incremental cost (i.e. TSLRIC) of the service.
Where it is not reasonably practicable to set prices on the basis of TSLRIC, the price of the ISDN Originating Service and the ISDN Terminating Service should be set having regard to the price of an appropriate benchmark.
A service will be an appropriate benchmark where:
(a) it is supplied in a competitive market or it is subject to cost based regulation; and
(b) its physical attributes are comparable to the ISDN Originating Service or the ISDN Terminating Service in question.
