National Broadband Plan: Discussion (Resumed)
Timmy Dooley (Clare, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source
Do member states define the purpose of a USO? If Ireland had not envisaged the national broadband plan, there was no policy intervention on the horizon and we had the tools provided by the EU directive, including a USO, would Ireland be able to define the USO in such a way as to provide broadband for those who did not have it, in other words, for those included in the figure of 542,000?
