It all depends on which report one accepts as being accurate. The other point relates to broadband speeds. Company representatives state they are not receiving broadband services, particularly mobile broadband services, at the speeds for which they signed up when they entered contracts with some companies. They are not getting what it "says on the tin". There is a major issue that needs to be addressed.

The issue of broadband came up everywhere when candidates were out canvassing for the recent elections. We need to tackle it head-on with a sense of urgency because broadband provision is fundamental to the economy. The Minister might also address the issue of speeds.
