Bill Summary
Senate Counsel & Research |
| Senate
State of Minnesota |
The bill adds and deletes language to tighten the restrictions on unsolicited
telephone solicitations provided in MN Statute 325E.311, Subd. 6. The bill adds
language specifying that a telephone call for the purpose of "establishing a business
relationship" constitutes a telephone solicitation. The bill deletes language which
exempted calls from persons or entities with whom a residential subscriber had a prior
business relationship from the definition of telephone solicitation, and adds language
which limits calls from those with whom a subscriber has a current business to only
those not made through the use of computer-assisted dialing.
The bill also deletes an ambiguous paragraph exempting calls in which the
caller does not intend to complete a sales presentation during the call from the
definition of telephone solicitation.
