National Broadband Plan
Dail Éireann — 2021-09-16
============================================================

Alan Dillon (FG), Mayo

Mayo is one of the counties with the highest number of premises in the intervention areas of the national broadband plan. In fact, it is third after Cork and Galway. It is equally high in terms of the percentage of households within the county which are in the intervention area. As a result, any delay to the roll out impacts our county much more significantly. I have been repeatedly calling for efforts to accelerate the roll out of the project, which is likely to be the most important public infrastructure project in living memory. I hope the Minister of State will be in a position to outline those efforts.
