Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications
National Broadband Plan for Ireland: Discussion
9:55 am
Mr. Conal Henry:
In terms of infrastructure competitiveness, we are probably in the middle of the class and are not at the bottom of the table. We have a disadvantage in that our population distribution is very bad in terms of the cost of deploying infrastructure, which shows up in our infrastructure competitiveness. We are slightly in the bottom half of the EU 27, but we are improving.
