New build developments - delivering gigabit-capable connections: consultation analysis

Conclusion

The focus of the questions in this consultation with regard to the delivery of gigabit-capable connections at new build properties was to gather opinions on the what the proposed legislation and guidance will cover and how it may impact network operators and developers.

In general, the majority of individuals, organisations and local authorities who provided a response to the consultation agreed with our proposals on broadband delivery in relation to new build homes.

We will work with industry stakeholders to refine and streamline processes to ensure that we deliver the outcomes sought and clarify roles and responsibilities for each party involved.

All feedback received will help inform the content of the regulations and updated guidance for deploying gigabit-capable connections that will be published later this year.
