I ask if we could just get the connection rate in relation to NBI, accepting that it is resellers who sell the product to clients and customers. The Minister of State pre-empted what I was going to ask. It is about the work ComReg has done in relation to making assessments. Some people will be at the tail end of delivery and we need to offer them the alternatives easily. The mobile phone and broadband task force could probably do the heavy lifting on that. That is a vital piece of work we could do, as well as ensuring that acceleration happens. I welcome that we are looking at bypassing the targets as they exist but we started from behind and if there was any possibility of speeding this up, that would be absolutely necessary. Will the Minister of State provide the information to people on what alternatives they can use and make sure they have an adequate timeline even now for delivery?
