I met members of NBI on site in Cratloe, County Clare, 12 months ago. They did a tour of various places in Ireland but we stopped at a level crossing. This could have been any level crossing in Ireland. The NBI staff told me that, at that time, licensing agreements with Irish Rail and other national entities were proving to be a barrier. NBI might get cabling a certain distance down a road but then have to cross a level crossing or a junction. Has NBI secured all of those licences to ensure that when broadband comes into a locality, it can be rolled out without too many difficulties?
