Mr. Patrick Neary:

We have taken a lot of learnings from Storm Éowyn. There has been intensive engagement to try to ensure we are better prepared for future significant events like Storm Éowyn.

One of the key actions that has been completed is ensuring a minimum level of mobile coverage is brought back on air as quickly as possible. The operators have identified critical priority sites that cover quite a large number of people. They have hardened those sites with mobile generators so that they are unlikely to go down in the first instance. If they do go down, there is an emergency response prioritised with ESB to bring them back on air as quickly as possible. That is one tangible action. A minimum level of connectivity will be brought back to people in a very short period. That has come out of the work we have done to date.
