Scotland's Digital Connectivity
The motion
As an amendment to motion S5M-12010 in the name of Fergus Ewing (Scotland's Digital Connectivity), after "island communities" insert "; calls on the Scottish Government to publish a full and clear regional timetable for the roll-out of superfast broadband; further calls for R100 to prioritise the remote, rural and island communities that currently endure unreliable, intermittent or no broadband connections; recognises that the Scottish Government's participation in delivering improved broadband, thus far, has been slow, particularly for those areas with the worst performing services, and that the cost of delivering the R100 programme may be significantly more than it has publicised".
