I wish to follow on the theme about which we have been talking, that is, mobile phone coverage and where ComReg sees the level going. There is a proposal that local authorities map black spots. I think it was announced last year that this process would happen and that local engineers were testing main roads to see where the black spots were. How extensive will the map ComReg will produce be? Will it be at the level of minute detail, showing the gaps in coverage along roads? There is talk that local government infrastructure will be used to increase the level of coverage. Has ComReg been involved in that process to any degree?
