Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland

Mr. T.J. Malone:

I will take that question. We have ongoing dialogue with CIÉ at the moment. Iarnród Éireann, the company to which the Deputy referred, has come to the table. We have that agreement in place now and are working very well. In fact, it has been working extremely well with us since we got the agreement in place. We have agreements in place with the ESB to cross various areas. It controls some of the bridges across reservoirs. We have that in place now as well. The final one on which we are working at the moment is with Coillte. We have recently engaged with it to get that over the line in respect of areas where we might have to cross forestry.
