wdegnan@f39.n382.z1.fidonet.org (William Degnan) (01/11/90)

The following summary was received in our office this morning. Does
anybody here have access to the "notice"? I'd sure like to see it.

  =================================================================

  COMMENTS, PLEASE -- The government has begun an inquiry into
  whether basic telephone service in the future should include
  technical innovations such as call-forwarding and access to data
  and video networks. ... The Bush administration said Tuesday it
  wants to have a policy in place a year from now. ... Key issues
  are how, how fast and which various elements of the industry can
  best improve U.S. competitiveness and the quality of life. ... In
  a 99-page notice published Tuesday, the policy-advising National
  Telecommunications and Information Admin. ... said it wants fresh
  comments within the next 90 days from the industry. ... AP, McGraw
  Hill, 1/9.



Regards, Bill
