Paying For Broadband
EDM number 52 in 2009-10, proposed by Adrian Sanders on 18/11/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Internet and cybercrime.
That this House notes with concern the Government's plans to place a levy on fixed telephone lines of 50 pence per month to fund the expansion of the UK's broadband infrastructure; believes that this tax will target many who do not wish to have high speed internet and will not target many who do; and calls on the Government to remove its proposals for this poll tax and to assess other potential funding sources.
This motion has been signed by a total of 13 MPs.
