I have been advised by National Broadband Ireland (NBI) that over 18,600 premises are now passed with a high-speed fibre broadband network and are available to order/pre-order in County Kilkenny, with over 7,400 premises now connected. A further circa 400 premises in County Kilkenny will be passed by NBI’s high speed fibre broadband by the end of the network deployment.

Further details are available on specific areas within County Kilkenny can be monitored via nbi.ie/reps. NBI has a dedicated email address, reps@nbi.ie, which can be used by Oireachtas members for specific queries. It should be noted that NBI provide this information for County Kilkenny based on NBI deployment areas rather than exact county boundaries.
