Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 11 July 2017
648. Deputy Timmy Dooley asked the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment the implementation status of each of the 19 actions identified for immediate action under the mobile phone task force; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [32900/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe report of the Taskforce was published in December last and is available on my Department's website at www.dccae.gov.ie. Each action contained in the Taskforce report and the associated Implementation Programme on Mobile Phone and Broadband Access has its own timeframe for delivery.
I established an Implementation Group to drive and monitor implementation of the actions, bringing together all key stakeholders responsible for delivery. On 13 June, I published the first quarterly progress report, which is also available on my Department's website. It shows that considerable progress has been made, particularly on implementation of actions identified for Q1 2017. I intend to publish the second quarterly report soon. Each progress report will contain formal updates on all relevant actions due that quarter, including the 19 priority actions.
