Needs and Uses: The Cable Television Consumer Protection and
Competition Act of 1992 (``Cable Act'') requires the Commission to
publish biennially a report on average rates for basic cable service,

prices charged by cable operators subject to effective competition and
those that are not subject to effective competition. The Biennial Cable
Industry Price Survey is intended to collect the data needed to prepare
that report. The data from these questions are needed to complete this
report.
