The national broadband plan has not yet concluded and is at a pre-tender process. From the committee's hearings, it is clear the developer, Granahan McCourt, still has options for what it will use on the final few miles to a house. It has the option of using Eir poles but the Department and others have indicated that it would also be possible, in the final part of tendering process, to use the ESB poles to gain access to the houses in the intervention area. Has the ESB had any discussions with the Department or the developer about that possibility?
