Transit Situation definition
Examples of Transit Situation in a sentence
In a Transit Situation the Parties (BT and either the ONO or TNO) and the other party to the relevant Call traffic shall use their best endeavours to ensure this Annex operates as a uniform code to bind the ONO, the TNO and the TO.
Without prejudice to paragraph 2.6, where an AIT Dispute exists between an ONO and a TNO in a Transit Situation, the TO may (only with the prior written agreement of authorised signatories of both the ONO and the TNO, but shall be under no obligation to) assign to the TNO any rights to payment from the ONO for the sum in dispute and Call traffic in dispute in order that all issues as to retention of monies may be settled between the TNO and the ONO.
For the avoidance of doubt, in a Transit Situation the BT transit conveyance charge appropriate to that type of Call remains payable to BT by the relevant party for that Call, irrespective of the presence or suspected presence of AIT or any retentions that may be made.
For the sake of clarity, in a Transit Situation the ONO shall have the primary responsibility for serving an A1 Retention Notice where there is a reasonable suspicion of AIT, however the Parties agree there may be circumstances where the TO becomes independently aware of and forms the initial reasonable suspicion of AIT, in which case the TO may serve an A1 Retention Notice on the TNO and shall liaise, and share AIT Call Data and related notices with the ONO.
