National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland
Mr. Peter Hendrick:
It is, but what we have to be very clear about is that we are not swapping one deployment area with another. First of all, if we find that we can get access to backhaul to a deployment area and increase our capacity to bring some of those deployment areas forward where we do have the ability to get backhaul, we can make those decisions. The two of them are joined together, however. We are looking to see where there is a sufficient and existing backhaul where we can bring deployment areas forward. We would not do it without the ability to be able to increase the capacity because we would not be switching one deployment area with another.
