Given that we are running out of time, I will cut to the chase. The questions refers to the roll-out of broadband to areas which are not commercially viable for the commercial operators. Do we know how much it will cost and will ring-fenced funding will be made available to ensure the more remote areas will have broadband services? Do we have an idea as to what roll-out period will be involved? Is it the Minister's intention that the network infrastructure will be in public or private ownership?
