Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

National Broadband Plan: Discussion (Resumed)

Dr. Dónal Palcic:

The State would be better able to adapt to changing market and technological conditions. When one is locked into detailed and rigid contracts with a 35-year lifespan, there is no flexibility unless that is built into the contract. A State-owned enterprise can, if something gets taken out of or added back into the intervention area, adapt easily and be as flexible as possible.
