Superfast Broadband: Rural Communities

Proceeding contribution from Albert Owen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 February 2017. It occurred during Debate on Superfast Broadband: Rural Communities.

The right hon. Gentleman is making a constructive point about the roll-out of mobile telecommunications. Are not the industrial strategy and the Digital Economy Bill an opportunity for the Government to look at this 5% of areas, which will predominantly be rural, that are not included in the target of 95% by 2017? A pilot scheme in the Shetland and Orkney Islands and Ynys Môn would be a great example for that going forward.
