Broadband infrastructure in Scotland: public review

5. In-scope Area

Note that the in-scope area for this PR covers all of Scotland. As explained above, we will not classify premises within the IHCRD procurement area until that procurement has concluded. A very small number of premises within Scotland have already been included in the scope of neighbouring procurement areas in England and this overlap will be accounted for. Suppliers should also note that the specific in-scope area boundaries (and IAs) may flex during the OMR, PR and Pre-Procurement Market Engagement processes to enable an optimum procurement to be put to the market. Where this occurs, we will ensure that it is communicated in a transparent manner in order to remain consistent with the principles of the Gigabit Infrastructure Scheme. Therefore if you have existing network coverage, or plan to build infrastructure in neighbouring areas, then please provide details in your response to this PR.

Please refer to the postcode map in Annex D for a visualisation of the boundary for this PR.
