By the end of next year, 75,000 fewer homes will have access to high-speed broadband than had been planned just two years ago under the national broadband plan. The build of that plan is a full 12 months behind schedule after only two years of the project. This will have a significant impact on the uptake of remote working across the country. This includes public sector workers, for whom the Government has set a target of having 20% working remotely by the end of the year.
