Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

National Broadband Plan: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Pat Kidney:

No, they are not. It would not be that extensive. The Deputy should think of it as a central point, be it an exchange or a POP. Around that, there is normally a town or village and on the outside of that doughnut, as it were, there is the area with 300,000 homes, or part of that, which is served by Eir. It is not ubiquitous. Outside that, there is the area that is served by that exchange. The inner third is built.
