The agreement is not restricted to these providers, and Andy Burnham appears to be hoping that more network operators will join in due course.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> 1 in 5 residents in Greater Manchester lives in social housing, and GMCA research estimates that &#8220;<em>up to<\/em>&#8221; 60% of these residents face digital exclusion of some form (e.g. cost barriers).<\/div>\n<p>The main focus here will no doubt be on larger residential buildings \/ MDUs (Multi-Dwelling Units), which is an area where all three of the aforementioned providers have traditionally had quite a strong focus. The new framework is said to have taken 18-months to create, and it will bring together 20 different housing associations \/ groups (e.g. Wythenshawe Community Housing).<\/p>\n<p>The details are currently quite thin, although the way it&#8217;s been presented and the fact that the framework is launching with three different network operators suggests to us that there may be an element of infrastructure sharing involved to help reduce duplication of the build effort. But we could be very wrong and are currently attempting to clarify via the GMCA.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE 18th September 2024<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatermanchester-ca.gov.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Greater Manchester Combined Authority<\/a> (GMCA) has now confirmed this wayleave agreement and clarified that it will benefit 260,000 homes (up from the previously stated 200,000+).
