That this House notes the decision of Ofcom to separate Openreach from BT; considers that high quality broadband connection is becoming an essential of modern everyday life; believes that such an essential service should be in public ownership, accountable to government and Parliament; and therefore calls on the Government to bring forward amendments to the Digital Economy Bill to enable such a transfer of ownership to take place.

This motion has been signed by a total of 5 MPs.
