As previously stated in my reply of 25 February to a Parliamentary Question on this matter, the premises referred to in the Question are located in the BLUE area on the NBP High Speed Broadband Map which is available on my Department's website at www.broadband.gov.ie.

While BLUE areas are not included in the State intervention area covered by the National Broadband Plan as commercial operators are already providing high speed broadband or have indicated future plans to do so, my Department has, however, raised a query regarding the premises in question with the service provider to get the current status for these locations. The service provider has since requested further information on the premises in order to investigate the matter fully and to ascertain the broadband speeds available to the premises. My Department has recently contacted the Deputy in this regard.
