I thank the Minister; I am happy with that. I will contact the office. In my home town of Carlow, and in Kilkenny, there have been huge issues around businesses getting broadband connections. As previous speakers said, there are connections in one part of a town but across the road there might not be. I know the Minister of State is committed as is the Minister for Rural and Community Development. However, Covid has totally changed the concept of working from home. These issues need to be addressed. I know that there is a commitment and the funding is there but the timescale needs to be examined. When will Carlow-Kilkenny be fully connected to the broadband network?
