But it probably won&#8217;t result in much change.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Backbench Business Committee<\/strong> debate will consider a motion, which states that &#8220;<em>this House notes variations in the effectiveness of roll-out of fixed and mobile superfast broadband in different parts of the UK; and calls on the Government to host a not-spot summit to consider the ways to tackle this issue<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At present the Government already aims to make fixed line superfast broadband (<strong>24Mbps+<\/strong>) speeds available to 95% of the UK by 2017\/18, which rises to 99% by 2018 if you include wireless solutions like Mobile Broadband (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/4g\">4G<\/a>) and Fixed Wireless Access networks.<\/p>\n<p>The vast majority of the above BDUK commitment is being delivered through contracts with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">BT<\/a> and a few alternative network providers, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/gigaclear\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Gigaclear<\/a>, AB Internet, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/airband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Airband<\/a> and others. The major Mobile Network Operators (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/threeuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Three UK<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">O2<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EE<\/a>) are also playing their part, both in terms of boosting population and landmass coverage (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2014\/12\/uk-mobile-operators-agree-5bn-deal-extend-geographic-coverage-90.html\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the Government are also exploring alternative solutions (e.g. fixed wireless, pure fibre optic networks and a subsidy for superfast <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/satellite\">Satellite<\/a> services) to help cater for the final 5% of the UK&#8217;s premises (around 1.5 million properties). On top of that a new <strong>Universal Service Obligation<\/strong> (USO) is currently being considered that would require <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">BT<\/a>, and possibly other operators, to deliver a minimum broadband speed of 5Mbps or more (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ofcom\" target=\"_blank\">Ofcom<\/a> and the FSB often call for 10Mbps).<\/p>\n<p>Some support (UK Guarantees Scheme)\u00a0is also being offered to BT and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a> in order to help them deploy &#8220;<em>ultrafast<\/em>&#8221; (<strong>100Mbps+<\/strong>) networks to millions\u00a0more premises, but at present that is more of a commercial initiative than a state aid fuelled one and isn&#8217;t likely to benefit many rural areas (if any at all).<\/p>\n<p>However, despite some good progress (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2015\/08\/on-target-bduk-bring-superfast-broadband-to-3-million-extra-uk-premises.html\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>) and a strong likelihood of achieving the original 90% BDUK coverage target within the next few months, many continue to question the quality of the connectivity being delivered. There are also concerns that enough isn&#8217;t being done to plug the final 5% (the nature of such networks mean that the final 5% are one of the most expensive to tackle).<\/p>\n<p>Some have also raised frustrations about the length of time being taken to deploy the infrastructure, although this aspect is perhaps a bit unfair since building new telecoms\u00a0networks has and always will be an inherently time consuming process. Never the less around 40,000 extra premises are benefiting every week and it&#8217;s worth noting that to deploy a pure fibre optic network across the country would take many years longer.<\/p>\n<p>The Government currently intends to set out their funding and strategy for tackling\u00a0the final 5% as part of November&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Autumn Statement<\/strong> (<strong>Spending Review<\/strong>) announcement, which is long overdue. In that sense it&#8217;s no surprise to find that another debate on the subject is due to be held today, although we&#8217;ve seen quite a few before and they rarely appear to have much of an impact upon the overall strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Mind you it&#8217;s likely that the outcome of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ofcom\" target=\"_blank\">Ofcom<\/a>&#8217;s current <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2015\/07\/ofcom-uk-asks-for-feedback-on-full-separation-of-openreach-from-bt.html\" target=\"_blank\">Strategic Review of Digital Communications<\/a><\/strong>, which is considering whether or not to separate BT from control of their national UK phone and broadband network (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a>), will have considerably more impact on the industry.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime it&#8217;s worth noting that the House of Commons Select Committee for the Department of Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) is also continuing to conduct an inquiry into the national broadband programme (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2015\/07\/select-committee-starts-inquiry-into-uk-superfast-broadband-strategy.html\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Watch the Commons Debate LIVE (Starts 2:30pm)<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.parliamentlive.tv\/Event\/Index\/b0c3fd11-0b34-4676-91d5-53c762b93f13\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.parliamentlive.tv\/Event\/Index\/b0c3fd11-0b34-4676-91d5-53c762b93f13<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Research Briefing for the Commons Debate<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/researchbriefings.parliament.uk\/ResearchBriefing\/Summary\/CDP-2015-0069\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/researchbriefings.parliament.uk\/ResearchBriefing\/Summary\/CDP-2015-0069<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>UPDATE 13th October 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A full transcript of last night&#8217;s debate can be found online at the link below.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.publications.parliament.uk\/pa\/cm201516\/cmhansrd\/cm151012\/debtext\/151012-0002.htm#15101217000001\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.publications.parliament.uk\/pa\/cm201516\/..\/151012-0002.htm#15101217000001<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The House of Commons (Westminster) will today debate the Government&#8217;s national Broadband Delivery UK programme (dominated by BT contracts) and related commitments to improve mobile network coverage at 3pm in the Commons Chamber.
