Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, how many properties in Ellesmere Port and Neston constituency are connected to broadband via exchange-only lines.
According to Ofcom’s 2018 Connected Nations report, 3% of UK broadband lines are exchange only lines.
Given the continued deployment of alternative networks, Ofcom estimates that the number of premises that can only receive broadband from such lines is around 1%.
Ofcom does not hold this data at a constituency level.
