I am happy to arrange a meeting involving myself, the hon. Gentleman and BT to discuss that issue.
Mr Angus Brendan MacNeil (Na h-Eileanan an Iar) (SNP)
In what appears to be a break with the constant scaremongering in this session, may I ask the Minister whether he agrees that broadband coverage percentages should be based on local authority area rather than national area?
David Mundell
What I think is that the Scottish Government, having been given £100 million by the UK Government to roll out broadband, should get on with it in the hon. Gentleman’s constituency and elsewhere.
