Summary

The primary purpose of this legis- lation is to amend the public service law to offer to small businesses a plan for deferred payment of charges stemming from the installation or initiation of service of a telephone line, or charges resulting from any nonrecurring maintenance service charge with respect to the telephone line or equipment. The public service law currently requires this offer to be made with respect to residential telephone lines. This amendment would extend the offer of deferred payment to small businesses.
