Clause 60
Finance (No.2) Bill
11:00 am

Brooks Newmark (Braintree, Conservative)
I must confess to having an interest. Although I do not own a BlackBerry, I own a Palm Treo, which has the same impact as a BlackBerry. My hon. Friend makes an excellent point about non-verbal communication. What may be helpful is the fact that all my bills, and I believe all of his, when they are telephonic are itemised. Therefore, any tax inspector of the Revenue can see clearly what is for business and what is for personal use. Perhaps we should be considering that as well, because those devices are for both written and verbal communication.
