Rural Broadband Speeds

EDM number 1136 in 2013-14, proposed by John Mann on 04/03/2014.
Categorised under the topics of Internet and cybercrime and Telecommunications.

That this House believes that the problems facing rural communities, particularly Misson in Bassetlaw, in gaining access to high speed broadband require solutions that cross regional boundaries; and calls on the Government to honour its promise to create the best high speed broadband network in Europe by 2015 and asks it to act now to prevent the creation of a two speed broadband Britain which penalises rural areas.

This motion has been signed by a total of 9 MPs.
