Mr. T.J. Malone:
For any business in the intervention area, it is up to us to get fibre to their premises. The only other thing would be work they have to do on premises themselves but that is something most businesses would normally be used to. We bring it directly to the premises. I was talking to somebody recently who is like that. He is downloading a lot of files and living on the top of a Wicklow mountain. He was paying €500 per month to have that direct link to it. Now our fibre is outside the door so he can pick that up at the normal cost that anyone in an urban area has.
