The European Commission today stepped up its efforts to promote the use of the charge-free European emergency number 112 in the EU. As of today, the new website ec.europa.eu/112 will tell citizens how to use 112 and what to expect from it, particularly when they travel within the EU. It also shows how 112 functions in each Member State: how quickly calls are answered and in which languages. Meanwhile, Call 11890 Ltd, the Irish Directory Enquiries company has today promised freedom for the Irish public throughout the summer months with the launch of free directory enquiry services for landline callers* for the entire summer months June 1st to August 31st 2008.
