Poll: Do you still have faith in the State's broadband plan?

A decision on the project has been delayed. Again.

By Fora Staff

THE MORE THAN 500,000 homes and businesses awaiting a decision on the National Broadband Plan (NBP) will have to wait a little longer. 

While a decision on whether to proceed with plan was due before Easter, Communications Minister Richard Bruton confirmed today that it will not be discussed by cabinet tomorrow, although he insisted that a decision won’t be dragged out. 

Initially announced in 2012, aimed at providing high speed broadband to every home and business in the State, the plan has been beset by delays. The plan is also likely to cost a lot more than originally planned.

With the NBP delayed yet again, this week we’re asking Fora readers: Do you still have faith in the State’s broadband plan?
