76  Enhanced rights of use
 (1) The following enhanced rights of use for a smartnumber are conferred on the EROU‑holder for the smartnumber:
 (a) the right to request a registered carriage service provider (which may be the provider that was the joint applicant under section 73 or another provider) to supply a carriage service on the smartnumber;
 (b) the right to trade the enhanced rights of use, as set out in section 79;
 (c) the right to ask a registered carriage service provider to surrender the smartnumber, as set out in section 80;
 (d) the right to give up all rights in relation to the smartnumber;
 (e) except as set out in section 85, the right to have no active service in place for the smartnumber;
 (f) the right to ask a registered carriage service provider to apply for the allocation of the smartnumber under section 58, if it is an assigned unallocated smart number;
 (g) the right to disconnection of an active service on the smartnumber at any time.
 (2) The right to disconnection of an active service does not affect the validity of any agreement for the delivery of services between the person to whom the services are provided and the carriage service provider concerned.
 (3) A carriage service provider need not act on a request by a person purporting to be the EROU‑holder unless the carriage service provider is satisfied that the person who made the request is the current EROU‑holder. For the purpose of being so satisfied, the carriage service provider is entitled to rely on the register of smartnumbers.
