Interdire le démarchage téléphonique et garantir le droit à la tranquillité de chacune et chacun à son domicile
This is a French private member's bill (proposition de loi ordinaire) tabled in the National Assembly during the 15th legislature. Its title translates as 'Ban telephone canvassing and guarantee everyone's right to peace at home.' Based on the title alone, it aims to prohibit cold calling by businesses to consumers and to strengthen protection of privacy within the home. The full text was not reviewed, so the exact scope and exceptions are unknown. Consumers in France who receive unsolicited sales calls would be most directly affected, as would companies and call centres that rely on telephone prospecting. If adopted, the bill would change the rules for how businesses can contact private individuals by phone.
