As a result the new scheme aims to fill many of those gaps, with <strong>\u00a39.9m<\/strong> coming from the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Investment (DETI), <strong>\u00a35m <\/strong>from the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (DARD), \u00a34.4m from BDUK and then \u00a34.2m from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">BT<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Arlene Foster, Enterprise, Trade and Investment Minister, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>I have consistently lobbied for additional investment from both government and telecoms providers to ensure higher speed broadband services are delivered as widely as possible. As we work to try and reach rural areas, the costs to improve services increase significantly so we need to ensure resources are used carefully.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Today\u2019s announcement is great news for Northern Ireland. It is another significant step in making broadband services more widely available to our citizens irrespective of where they live or operate their business.
