Priority issue for the Council of Ministers
The quality of broadband, not its availability, is key for Island internet users - so says Ayre and Michael MHK Tim Baker.
He asked the Chairman of the Communications Commission Bill Malarkey if there are any plans to monitor broadband performance across the Island.
Mr Malarkey told today's House of Keys sitting (6 Dec) that the commission will research options to measure internet speed and quality.
The delivery of high-quality broadband has been deemed a priority for the Council of Ministers by Chief Minister Howard Quayle.
Mr Baker said poor internet performance can have serious implications:
More coastal overtopping expected as strong winds continue
Full lighting capability restored at Isle of Man Airport
Snaefell Mountain Railway out of action after storm damage
Council confident for Manor Pub's future
