DIGITAL ECONOMY BILL
(This is a response to the email below, which was also CC'd with three other recipients.)
Hi Colin,
Firstly, thanks for sharing my email address with three complete strangers. I'm sure your Data Protection officer (if you have one) would just love that. Kinda reinforces the travesty of the whole Digital Economy Act affair. Secondly, your non-reply confirms how damaging the double-job culture is for constituents' needs. I will be voting tomorrow for sure - and i'll be picking a candidate that will devote all their time to Westminster affairs. RegardsRich DaleOn Wed, May 5, 2010 at 11:02 AM, Colin CK.

Dear Folks Thank you for your correspondence regarding the progress of the Digital Economy Bill. I apologise for the delay in getting back to you in this regard, however I am sure you will understand that Peter receives hundreds of e-mails each and every day and sometimes it is not possible for us to respond in as prompt a manner as we would wish. Peter has spoken to me and ask me to respond to your concerns. At the outset it must be stated that both he and his DUP colleagues share your concern in relation to the Digital Economy Bill. On the 6th and 7th April 2004 when the Bill was debated in the House of Commons, Mr Robinson was involved in series of critically important meetings with NIO officials including the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, in relation to the future of the province. In such circumstances it was not possible for he himself to be in at the debate. In order to ensure that there was a Democratic Unionist voice in the House,Dr Paisley attended on Peter's behalf and he duely voted against the Bill. I trust that this answers your questions, however, if you have any further queries, please don't hesitate to drop us a line. Yours faithfully
Mr Colin Kennedy
