Stephen Willilams and 0870 Numbers

Our local MP has been taking up the issue of 0870 phone numbers, a matter raised in this blog in relation to Virgin Media earlier in the year.

In the case of Stephen Williams, he wants to know how much the DVLA has made from its 0870 numbers in the last 5 years. He presumably smells a stealth tax.

I'm not sure he's got an answer yet, from Jim Fitzpatrick MP, at the Department of Transport (pictured below).
