Clause 104 - Register of persons in whose case code applies
Communications Bill
5:45 pm
Mr Michael Fabricant (Lichfield, Conservative)
The Minister and other contributors to the debate on clause 102 rightly pointed out the importance of the code, and I wish to raise a simple question about the publication and maintenance of the register. Subsection (4)(a) states that the register should be made available to the public, and subsection (4)(b) talks about fees. Does the Minister envisage that Ofcom will maintain the register on a website that is available to everyone who tries to access it? If so, what is the implication for any income stream on which Ofcom might be partially dependent that might be generated by subsection (4)(b)?
