The other point that is that the faster this happens the better. In some places people have been facilitated in the sense that alternatives have become available. Has the NBI done any engagement with the mobile phone and broadband task force? My understanding is that it has tasked ComReg with putting together a list of alternatives, particularly for those people who will be waiting at the tail-end of delivery on the NBP. It may be a case of them using some sort of low earth orbit satellite system, a fixed-wired system, a mobile system or whatever sort of solution. Is that the state of play?
