Ireland's Digital Connectivity Strategy, published by my Department, sets ambitious targets, which include providing a Gigabit network to all households and businesses in Ireland by 2028 and access to 5G in all populated areas by 2030.

The National Broadband Plan (NBP) is the government's initiative to deliver high speed broadband services to all premises in Ireland.

The Question refers to a premises located in the AMBER area on the broadband map, which is available on my Department's website at . The AMBER area is to be served by the network deployed under the NBP State led intervention.

National Broadband Ireland (NBI) have advised that the premises in question is currently being added to the network and once updated on the system, the premises will be ready for service and able to place an order.

The latest information on when high-speed broadband will become available to this premises can be found on NBI website at nbi.ie/map/. This website is regularly updated providing the expected timeline for delivery and status of any works that are initiated at any point in time. NBI also has a dedicated email address, , which can be used by Oireachtas members for specific queries.
