For the purposes of this Part, a determination requires a carrier to provide pre‑selection in favour of a carriage service provider in relation to calls made using a particular carriage service if, and only if, the determination requires:

the controlled networks and controlled facilities of the carrier to permit an end‑user to:

pre‑select the carriage service provider as the end‑user’s preferred carriage service provider for such of the end‑user’s requirements, in relation to calls made using that carriage service, as are specified in the determination; and

change that selection from time to time; and

the controlled networks and controlled facilities of the carrier to provide over‑ride dial codes for selecting alternative carriage service providers, in relation to calls made using that carriage service, on a call‑by‑call basis.

End‑user is defined by subsection (3).

pre‑select the second provider as the end‑user’s preferred carriage service provider for such of the end‑user’s requirements, in relation to calls made using that carriage service, as are specified in the determination; and

change that selection from time to time; and

the controlled networks and controlled facilities of the first provider to provide over‑ride dial codes for selecting alternative carriage service providers, in relation to calls made using that carriage service, on a call‑by‑call basis.
