20. Motions
20.1 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 Telcom to being shared also with cell phone companies." Narrative: The public service obligation requries 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 remote 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. 20.2 Received from Cllr N J Hartin: "Council notes the extra Cabinet meeting on the 9th March for Cabinet to consider the Acute Hospitals reorganisation plans. Given the importance of this matter to all of the communities of Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin, Council resolves to hold a further special Council following Cabinet consideration to allow the whole Council to debate and discuss its considered response to the plans in the light of any Cabinet recommendations.
