Public Accounts Committee

2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 29 - Environment, Climate and Communications
National Broadband Plan Expenditure and Related Matters

9:30 am

Mr. Mark Griffin:

The key thing to note for the Deputy is that there is no impediment in our contract that would prevent that from happening. We are looking, for instance, at a case where the Deputy is being told that this is because it is in an amber area, notwithstanding the proximity of a commercial pole, fibre and all of the rest.

If that operator makes a commercial determination that it wants to do this, it can absolutely do that and there is nothing in how we decide the contract that would prevent it from doing it.
