Hand Up for BroadbandDELIVERING 100% SUPERFAST BROADBAND
Two Observations First, the wider socioeconomic and societal benefits of 100% Superfast Broadband are much greater than the consumer’s preparedness to pay
Second, a fit-for-21st Century-purpose network deserves a 21st Century solution
Conclusion: a new model for partnership between Local Authorities and the private sector is needed…
…and the SEP provides a catalyst for this to happen.
