Dr. Matt Yardley:

I will make an initial comment and perhaps Mr. Kidney will add a little more. That structure is the same as the way in which the other companies the Deputy has cited operate with these organisations. National Broadband Ireland is not doing anything differently in terms of its contracting arrangements compared with other large well-established operators in Ireland and this is a model we see everywhere. Telecoms operators generally outsource a lot of these functions to companies similar to this.
