FTTH) broadband ISP network on the English Channel Island of Jersey, which is being conducted by the state-owned
JT Global (Jersey Telecom), looks to be under threat after the local government (
States of Jersey) requested a £6m dividend from the Telco to help it plug a £31m budget deficit for 2014 (rising to £39m in 2015).
