Digital Economy Bill

Proceeding contribution from Kit Malthouse (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 September 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Digital Economy Bill.

I just want to be clear, because many of my constituents will be listening carefully, on what 10 megabits per second actually means. The Minister, in an intervention, used the word “minimum” when he said that the universal service obligation would be 10 megabits

per second. Is he saying that it is the Government’s intention that some broadband speeds should never fall below 10 megabits per second, no matter what their neighbours, or anybody else who is sharing capacity, are doing?
