Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

National Broadband Plan: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Denis O'Leary:

We will not be looking at it any time soon and there is no need for us to do so. We broke our ties, as such, with the national broadband plan two years ago. It has not been mentioned in the ESB in the past two years, and I would say it has not been mentioned in Vodafone in the two years either. Both companies are busy delivering their own business plans. Anything related to a new process is hypothetical. So many things have changed in the two years since we left that it is difficult to answer any question.
