The CEO of UK ISP Tiscali, Mary Turner, has issued an initial and largely welcoming response to the recent Trade and Industry Select Committee (TISC) report into broadband:
"We welcome the report and are pleased to see that the Committee has recognised the lack of competition in wholesale broadband. It has now placed the responsibility on Ofcom to ensure a competitive market and that an enhanced and sustainable margin is established between wholesale IPStream and DataStream.
We are however disappointed that the Committee has failed to address, as a matter of urgency, the high activation fee of £50, a major barrier to mass adoption of broadband."
