Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:24 pm on 16 January 2018.
First Minister, because of Welsh Government investment, there's no doubt that thousands of households across the Llanelli constituency now have access to superfast broadband. But in the community of Bynea, just outside of Llanelli, they've been treated appallingly by BT Openreach. They were told they'd have access by the end of the year, they've appalling speeds, and just before Christmas were told that because they've reached their target, they'd have to wait until any future successor scheme. This clearly isn't good enough.
My colleague Nia Griffith held a meeting with residents and with BT on Saturday morning, and they were told that they'd now have to cobble together a community bid. They are very frustrated by this, so can the Welsh Government make sure that, as it communicates the next phase, these left-behind groups are now reached and reached quickly?
