Do Not Call Register Law Passed

The Do Not Call Register Act 2006 has now been enacted by Parliament. The Register is expected to commence in the first half of 2007.
On 28 Nov 2005, EFA made a submission in response to the Discussion Paper titled Introduction of an Australian Do Not Call Register issued by the Department of Communications, Information Technology and the Arts. EFA supports the establishment of a Do Not Call Register. Additional measures are also necessary, including regulations governing the use of automated calling systems and minimum national contact standards.
