In April 2017, eir signed a commitment agreement to provide high speed broadband to 300,000 premises. Deployment figures for Q4 2017 have not yet been verified by my Department’s team. However, eir has informed my Department that they have passed a total of approximately 121,000 premises as of December 2017.
A county by county breakdown of premises in the LIGHT BLUE area is in the table. These are the number of premises yet to be passed by eir in its deployment. These figures are reflective of the county statistics on my Department's website (www.dccae.gov.ie) and are correct to September 2017. December 2017 figures will be updated shortly.
