Mr. Marcus Matthews:

They work with the ISPs themselves. The key difference in terms of why the scope of that initiative is so well thought through - the parameters have not been defined - is that it is a quality-of-service intervention. The ISPs will not get the voucher if they do not deliver the minimum amount of download and upload, response time and connection. Irrespective of the technology, the quality of service is the same. This is the type of intervention that would have made the most sense here in Ireland and would have allowed many of the regional ISPs to ultimately connect most of the customers.
