Dedicated Special Network Service
Telecom agreed to provide a customer with a dedicated special network linking customer sites at a discount of 40% on 2MB transmission charges (excluding City Step and access charges) and subsequent installation charges.

The network comprised a high number of long distance transmission links.

2. Term of Contract
A contract for 10 years was agreed.

3. Growth and Supply of Forecasts
(a) Forecasts show a high level of future growth in the scale of operations expected.
(b) A minimum committed forecast period to be updated regularly.
(c) Provision of long term forecasts.

1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ...
