Mobile Phone Charges: EUC Report

My Lords, I thank the Minister for that very thorough answer, in his typical style of ensuring that all points are answered, and for dealing with the subject in such a sincere and intelligent fashion; the House appreciates it. I thank all noble Lords who have taken part. We on this side of the House are always impressed by my noble friend Lady Wilcox’s quick grasp of the issue, which she demonstrates in her calm and charming fashion. She must give up her job on the Front Bench immediately and join us in Sub-Committee B; we need all the help we can get. If Commissioner Viviane Reding reads Hansard tomorrow, perhaps she will through the airwaves or at least through the lines of Hansard recognise that, if she is still there in 18 months’ time and if I am still in post as chairman of the committee, I hope to go to Brussels along with my colleagues. We will look over her shoulder to make sure that there is a sensible review of whether these regulations are needed and that any changes needed in the interests of the consumer will be made. On Question, Motion agreed to.
