Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Viscount Thurso (Liberal Democrat), on Wednesday, 26 November 2014, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 10 members in total.
BROADBAND IN THE HIGHLANDS AND ISLANDS
That this House notes that many Government services are now only delivered online; congratulates the Government on providing funds to enable the roll-out of fibre optic cables and broadband in the Highlands and Islands and that the project is on schedule to complete in 2016-17; further notes, however, with concern that neither Openreach nor Highlands and Islands Enterprise will say which houses will benefit, leaving communities unable to plan for the choice between commercial and community provision; and calls on the Government to require the providing partners to be open and transparent.
