Question 27/III - Cost studies for determining the basic tariff
components for telecommunication services (telegraph, telephone, telex,
data, etc.) (continuation of Question 27/III studied in 1985-1988)

(Permanent Question; however, the permanent character of the Question
does not imply the obligation to begin a new study during each study
period.)

Cost studies for fixing the basic components of tariffs (for
international accounting purposes) in telecommunications services (data,
telegraph, telephone, telex, etc.).

The studies are to be carried out on a regional basis by the regional
groups set up by the IVth Plenary Assembly of the CCITT to deal with
international tariffs, namely:

- Regional Tariff Group for Africa (TAF);

- Regional Tariff Group for Latin America (TAL);

- Regional Tariff Group for Asia and Oceania (TAS);

- Regional Tariff Group for Europe and the Mediterranean Basin (TEUREM).
