National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland
Mr. T.J. Malone:
I could be speaking hypothetically here. Who knows? There is a pathway where we could get to the end of this year and, under the MIP product, an agreement could be reached with Eir regarding the elements a self-install would go ahead with. Time would then be needed for us to mobilise contractors and get these up and built. It would be necessary to go through procurement processes for that undertaking. It would be necessary to get up to speed in that regard and to do all these things. That does not happen overnight.
