Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment
National Broadband Plan: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Carolan Lennon:
I know that has been put out there but I fundamentally disagree. People have taken out the revenue associated with the 300,000 households but left in the cost, whereas we have actually picked up the bill for the costs and have gone ahead and have built the network. We have actually built infrastructure to service 40,000 more households, so another 40,000 can now be taken out of the intervention footprint and there is no cost to the taxpayer because we have already done them. The KPMG report backed that up.
