Director General Of Oftel And The Need For Further Regulation Of Telephone Services

EDM number 111 in 1991-92, proposed by Terry Lewis on 07/11/1991.

That this House believes that the recent announcement by British Telecom about the way in which the premium rate services are to be delivered is a totally inadequate response to widely expressed public concern in this matter; is convinced that proper control of these services can only be guaranteed by the adoption of measures proposed by the honourable Member for Worsley; notes that these are (a) for a contracting-in system and (b) for direct billing arrangements by system providers; and calls upon the Director General of OFTEL to insist that these minimal demands be met forthwith.

This motion has been signed by a total of 30 MPs.
