British Telecom And Service Contracting In Proposals

EDM number 2248 in 1992-93, proposed by Terry Lewis on 01/07/1993.

That this House congratulates British Telecom for at long last introducing an 'opt in' solution to problems caused by telephone sexlines; regrets that it has taken almost seven years, since the honourable Member for Worsley first suggested it, for this to be introduced; is concerned that the long delay has caused immeasurable harm to many people; regrets that it will be a year before full implementation; but is, nonetheless, pleased that the demise of the most sordid premium rate services is now in prospect.

This motion has been signed by a total of 46 MPs.
