what do you mean "not quite right"???
if the clid is supposed to be blocked then don't send it. if the far end is a law enforcement or emergency agency then the clid is NOT supposed to be blocked!! if the originating switch had the ability to send or not send, problem solved for voip providers from getting a "blocked clid"

this is really simple, companies like Nortel, Lucent need to change their code for caller id, if the number should be blocked then dont transmit it to the far end switch
Err, not quite right.
There are a few circumstances when called ID can be blocked (it's
rumoured certain spook agencies have this ability), however if a "user"
withholds CID, then it's just flagged at the local switch and passed
switch to switch with the withold CLI flag. The terminating switch
should then NOT pass on CLI if the withold flag is set on to an end-user
line.
Of course some agencies will get CLI passed even if the withold flag is set (in the UK, Police, fire, etc, potentially even ISPs for abuse purposes - but they are not meant to abuse the privilige).
