54. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills if he will provide, in tabular form, the broadband connection status of every primary school in County Meath; including whether or not the school has broadband; the speed of the connection if it does; the type of connection; for schools that have no connection, the date on which each can expect to be connected; the stage this process is at; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Under the Schools Broadband Access Programme the Department provides for the supply of internet connectivity for all recognised primary and post primary schools. All contracts under the Schools Broadband Access Programme were re-tendered last year under a public procurement competition. As a result of this the number of service providers has been expanded from 6 to 13 with the aim of ensuring that satisfactory solutions would be awarded to schools.

Where schools were awarded slow DSL solutions or satellite solutions, the contracts were for one year only and these schools were retendered for last August. In total 414 schools were retendered by way of a mini competition under the framework that was set up in 2012. Of those 414 schools, the Minister has awarded improved solutions to 14 schools in Meath, however these connections would not yet be installed and as they were only recently awarded an indicative date is not available.

On the following spreadsheets there is a list of all schools in Meath and their current status and a list of the 14 new awards on a separate worksheet.
