Broadband Inquiry

Questions the committee would like to consider are:

Whether the target for universal access to broadband at a speed o 2MB/s by 2012 is ambitious enough?
Is government right to propose a levy on copper lines to fund next generation access?
Will the Government’s plans for next generation access work?
If companies are providing the speed of access which they promise to consumers?
The extent to which current regulation strikes the right balance between ensuring fair competition and encouraging investment in next generation networks? And

Any other views stakeholders think the Committee should be aware of.

The deadline for input into the BCC response will be the 16th September. If you would like to be involved in this please notify Kevin Hoctor at k.hoctor@britishchambers.org.uk
