The following motions have been received in accordance with Procedure Rule 16: 16.1 The following motion has been received from Cllr P. F. Phillips: Council urges the government to extend the public service operation from solely being laid on British Telecom to being shared also with cell phone companies. Narrative: The public service obligation requires British Telecom alone to fund and maintain telephone kiosks. These have lost a lot of their usage and in many cases been removed because of that, simply because of the spread of mobile phones. In some areas, notably rural areas, cell phone reception is very poor and sometimes totally unavailable. Telephone kiosks are seldom used but the calls that are made are therefore often quite important for those who are making the calls. It would seem reasonable to ask the cell phone companies, whose prosperity has contributed to the falling away of custom usage of telephone kiosks, should be instructed to shoulder some of the costs.
