Why is the project taking so long? We have been hearing about it being put out to tender since the most recent general election. Why is it taking so long to place the tender and get the project up and running? Why is it always next year? We heard that it would be rolled out in 2017-18. Then the date was put back to 2019 and we now hear it will be 2020. The date keeps being pushed back when we are crying out for broadband services.
