Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 October 2018
556. Deputy Niamh Smyth asked the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment the reason a person (details supplied) cannot have broadband supplied; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [42279/18]
View answerThe National Broadband Plan High Speed Broadband Map, available at www.broadband.gov.ie, shows that the premises referenced by the Deputy is in a BLUE area, where commercial operators are currently delivering or have indicated plans to deliver high speed broadband services. My Department defines high speed broadband as a service of at least 30Mbps download and 6Mbps upload.
Where a citizen living in a Blue area is unable to obtain a high speed broadband service, I would encourage them to email my Department at broadband@dccae.gov.ie with their eircode and details of the service providers they have contacted.
