That way you'd document a plausible alternative to the government schools broadband planning instead of getting wrapped up in documenting the way the goalposts keep moving in this broadband game.

While the delay is disheartening, Eamon has instruments available to him which he should consider using e.g., policy directions to ComReg and the vast resources of the ESB and Eirgrid. It is all about execution. Ronan Damien,

I don’t honestly believe we can blame Eamon Ryan for the delay, economic circumstances have forced the government’s hands to a large extent.

While the delay is disheartening, Eamon has instruments available to him which he should consider using e.g., policy directions to ComReg and the vast resources of the ESB and Eirgrid.

It is all about execution.
