<p>Whilst we have no such plans in place I am pleased to note that Ofcom and the Information
Commissioner’s Office published new consumer research on the effectiveness of the
Telephone Preference Service (TPS) on 24 July 2014. This independent research showed
that registering with the TPS reduced all types nuisance calls, including live sales
calls, recorded messages and silent and abandoned calls by around a third. The full
Ofcom report can be accessed at: <a href="http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/market-data-research/other/telecoms-research/tps-effectiveness/"
target="_blank">http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/market-data-research/other/telecoms-research/tps-effectiveness/</a></p><p>
</p><p>As noted in our Nuisance Calls Action Plan of March this year we are keen to
improve the enforcement of the existing regulations as we believe this will further
increase the effectiveness of the TPS.</p><p> </p>
