Proceeding contribution from Earl of Erroll (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 1 March 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Digital Economy Bill [HL].


Digital Economy Bill [HL]

I have certainly had some letters about this because there are some concerns that this may turn hotels and other people into communication service providers, because they will have to start to monitor who is logged on and when and they will have to have software that does that. Does this make them into CSPs along with all the obligations and everything else that that entails? Some clarification as to what this might imply for libraries, hotels, and other public places would be very useful.
