Legal agreements for ICPs

We will implement a new process to enable IDNOs to accept an agreement by signing it electronically.

We remain committed to facilitating fair and open competition in connections and our dedicated team continue to engage with ICPs operating in our region to understand how we can work together to improve the service they can offer their clients.

 We made a commitment to develop and implement a new process that would allow ICPs to produce their own asset adoption agreements and then submit them to us for legal completion. This was a direct request from Independent Connections Provider GTC and the action was delivered to forecast.

When we contacted GTC to check what we had delivered met their expectations, they made a further suggestion that the agreements we require them to complete should be able to be submitted electronically. They told us this would make the  process more streamlined and efficient. We agreed and made a commitment to deliver this improvement before the end of 2018.  We agreed the process and briefed ICPs attending our ICP Seminar on 30 November 2018 about the change closing out the action.
