In the same way, the restraints imposed by the recycling of traditional telecommunications sub-contractors in this new technique raises problems of technical know-how and work control. Thus, the hazards of start-up (buildings which are officially supposed to be cabled, but where lines have been stacked in the basement; or the overlooking of certain "islands" reputed by the agents to be socially unworthy (!)...) can have serious consequences, such as the lengthy occultation of an entire zone of habitation.

The first agreements signed between the administration and local groups indicated that every cabled site would have the right to obtain an agreed-on advantage to another site. This is what is called the clause of die "most-favoured S.LE.C." clause. This illustration of the principle of realignment (when the map of the sites to be cabled shows that the immense majority of average-sized cities are in fact excluded, introducing a large territorial inequality) was legally abandoned as early as, vol.26, p.25, 1974.
