Mr. Patrick Neary:

I will start with the dark blue area and I thank the Chairman for that question. It is an important point. We have concerns on the dark blue area in that there are homes that we have marked on our map that are getting 30 Mbps and may not be getting that. We have a team of people who are monitoring the maps and making sure that those houses that we believe are getting 30 Mbps are getting it. It is important that where there are instances in which local authorities or broadband officers, for example, recognise that there is an issue, they should contact us and give us that information. We will investigate that thoroughly. We have an email address set up for that, namely broadband@decc.gov.ie. We are looking into anomalies.Perhaps I am not exactly familiar with the one the Chairman has raised but where individual houses are marked as getting 30 Mbps and may not be getting that, we will contact the providers of that-----
