PQ 480
480. Deputy Barry Heneghan asked the Minister for Culture, Communications and Sport if he will consider reviewing the eligibility criteria for the National Broadband Plan intervention area in light of ongoing broadband access issues in urban areas, where only a single provider offers broadband above the 30Mbps threshold, effectively limiting competition; if he will examine the impact of this lack of competition on affordability and consumer choice; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
