Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications
EU Scrutiny Reports: Discussion with the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources
11:00 am
Mr. Mark Griffin:
I will take the last question first. Deputy Coffey is correct with regard to broadband and the fact so much infrastructure is in place in the State sector. The 2012 broadband plan contained an intention to examine the totality of the infrastructure which existed in the State sector, whether in the Office of Public Works, Iarnród Éireann, Bord Gáis or the Department because apparently the Department owns ducts throughout the country, which was a great surprise to me when I joined the Department. A substantial amount of this work has been undertaken.
