What the petition asks

Everyday, millions of people are subjected to annoying phone calls either from automated systems or from call centres with no legitimate purpose. These are, at best, very annoying and, at worst, they leave vulnerable people open to fraud and mis-selling. The TPS system is not working effectively.
