Donegal North East T.D.,
Deputy Niall Blaney welcomed the measures and said
he was assured a further 19 areas in the county
would be serviced by eircom "without delay".
“Broadband is a vital tool in life as we know it
today," he said. “Whether it is for business or
pleasure, people want |
it to be available in
their areas and they are entitled to that option.
“Broadband is particularly important for the
development of industry, however, and for that
reason I particularly welcome this announcement from
eircom," he added.
The Fianna Fail deputy said the majority of homes in
Ireland would be connected to broadband within two
years.
“We are making great strides in the enabling of the
service throughout the country. Within two years, 96
per cent of the working telephone lines in the
country will be connected to a broadband exchange." |
