Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

National Broadband Plan: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Denis O'Leary:

This would have to be done under a state aid subvention. As I told the Chairman, we have withdrawn from this process in the past two years and have worked on all the other key programmes I mentioned. Any potential broadband plan has passed us by. Without being an expert, my understanding of state aid is that it would be a challenge in getting to that position. If we were mandated to do that as a company, then we would have to seriously consider it then.
