Mr. Ciarán Ó hÓbáin:

I will ask Mr. Neary to come in on that in a second. The technology was not being driven by the Government. The technology came from the industry. We all absolutely understand that frustration - I know it from the team here - about the time it will take to get to the last home.

It would be useful for Mr. Neary to address two points. One is the practicality or otherwise of a hybrid model where one was going for 30% or 40% of wireless in terms of the work that we did when we modelled what it looks like and what that would mean in terms of what one has to cover by fibre, which I understand to mean that one would still cover most of the same area if one goes for a hybrid approach. The second is work that ComReg has done. I refer to the Plum report in terms of if one is going 100% wireless, the scale of additional masts that one would require and the roll-out and build-out time there because it could be quite significant.
