I am sorry but I can identify 25 parishes in rural areas of my constituency that do not have broadband and they are not even being inspected at the moment. They will not be touched until 2025. These areas are within an 18-mile radius of Cork city. That is the reason I am getting concerned about this. I fully accept that broadband is being rolled out in Carrigaline, Midleton and the areas around them but the areas I am talking about are all within 15 or 18 miles of Cork city.
