Broadband Delivery UK provided the National Audit Office with extensive documentation to inform their memorandum to the Public Accounts Committee. Some of this is available on https://www.gov.uk/gosuperfast; data such as the maps and 7 digit post code data is available on the websites of the relevant local authorities and devolved administrations. The financial data is commercially sensitive and cannot be released. The NAO Memorandum is a fair summary of the material provided. It would be disproportionate to review all the documents with a view to considering if further material can be published.
