The below report, produced by EY, was commissioned by this Department to investigate the potential benefits of the National Broadband Plan to the Irish economy. These benefits are identified across several categories; economic, enterprise, societal, and individual benefits.
The report found that broadband is increasingly essential to our daily lives and that it is a vital part of economic and social development. The State-led intervention is crucial to ensure that all of Ireland can equally benefit. A failure to make this investment would result in a growing digital divide, with negative economic and social impacts.
