Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland

Mr. Peter Hendrick:

In a lot of cases, we also have to look at the capacity and redundancy of infrastructure. One of the largest constraints is the capacity to do make-ready. If we took an area that was due to be dealt with in 2025 and brought it forward, we would, in effect, push another area out. The communication around this project is that we are trying to give people confidence that, even if a project is two or four years out, it will come. We have to be very careful that when we bring deployment areas forward that we do so on the basis of have the capacity to complete the Eir make-ready.
