Ofcom publishes statutory backing for new PhonepayPlus rules
This article was published in July 2011 and reflects the regulatory position at that time. For current guidance on this topic, contact Bratby Law or see our latest insights.
The watcher has been a bit quiet recently – caused by a combination of a business trip to Singapore and a holiday.
Despite the holiday period there has been a lot going on including:
- yesterday’s UK case on site blocking;
- the EU Commission’s CEO summit on broadband investment; and
- the ECJ decision on intermediary liability in L’Oreal v eBay.
I previously discussed the changes to the PhonepayPlus code of practice, and today Ofcom published changes to the PRS condition to give statutory backing to the new code which comes into effect from 1 September.
