Broadband or the lack of it in Kerry is still a major issue for many people. I will not say it is confined to rural areas because I would class many of the places as urban but broadband has not yet reached them. To say people are disappointed is an understatement. Many people trying to conduct businesses or to keep going are very angry. Eircom was sold and a new company known as Eir was set up. Has the Government considered purchasing Eir again? Whoever gets the new contract will have to rent the infrastructure from Eir. Landline phones are becoming obsolete.
