Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

National Broadband Plan: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Denis O'Leary:

It probably was not just any one issue and the level of discussion and interaction we had with the Department was pretty intensive in summer 2017. I suppose we were looking for everything to change and there was a list of things we would have liked to have seen happening. The Department reminded us we were in the middle of a procurement process that was open and ongoing, although due to close. It was not really in a position to accommodate the list of requests that we had that we felt were reasonable.
