Proposition de loi modifiant le Code de droit économique afin de lutter plus efficacement contre le démarchage téléphonique intempestif.

This is a Belgian private member's bill (proposition de loi) submitted to the Chamber of Representatives. It proposes amending the Code of Economic Law to more effectively combat unsolicited telephone marketing, commonly known as cold calling. The aim is to strengthen consumer protection against intrusive sales calls that consumers have not requested. Consumers in Belgium would be the main beneficiaries, as tighter rules on cold calling could limit traders' ability to contact people by phone without consent. Businesses that use telephone prospecting, including call centres and energy or telecom sellers, would likely face stricter obligations. The exact changes depend on the final text, which this summary does not cover.
