§ Lord Taylor of Gryfeasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether they will ask the Board of British Telecom to review the £15 fee charged for changing the name of a telephone subscriber.
§ The Secretary of State for Trade and Industry (Lord Young of Graffham)No. Representations about BT charges are a matter for the Director General of Telecommunications. I understand that OFTEL have already considered this charge which is applied only when the account of a telephone subscriber changes. OFTEL concluded that the charge was reasonable.
