I thought he would be on the radio this morning to explain about the dramatic situation following SIRO, the ESB company's withdrawal from the tendering process. The Minister also has responsibility for the ESB. I cannot understand how he allowed SIRO to run from this project. It looked at the project and it seemed to me like a very competent company that could provide genuine, quality broadband throughout the country. The Minister explained about the boreen with the grass growing in the middle of it. That sounds like my road. The Minister must have been down it recently. I do not expect to get broadband there. We have very bad broadband and it does not work too well at all. It is well hidden.
