<p> </p><p>The Emergency Services Mobile Communications Programme has worked with
the <br>Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) since February 2013, running a series of <br>supplier
workshops and market engagement sessions throughout 2013 and the first <br>quarter
of 2014 ahead of procurement launch. The MNOs have run a series of <br>capability
demonstrations, organised by the Programme, to showcase development <br>of this technical
solution. The Programme has confidence that this capability <br>is deliverable. The
MNOs met the Minister for the Cabinet Office during <br>February 2014, where they
confirmed their ability and willingness to deliver <br>the technology required to
enable the emergency services to operate effectively <br>over a commercially available
mobile network, including provision of <br>prioritisation of Emergency Service traffic.</p><p>
