The number of people who signed each petition is clearly set out in our response to the consultation, and their views have been considered fully as part of the Government's deliberations on these issues. answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matt Hancock question first answered 08/03/2018 07:50:31 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/02/2018 answer text <p>10Mbps is the minimum download speed that Ofcom says is needed to meet the typical needs of an average family. This will enable simultaneous live streaming of television, video calling, emailing and basic web browsing. Consumers on connections of less than 10Mbps tend to use less data, suggesting that internet usage is constrained below this speed.</p><p> </p><p>Download speed is not the only quality requirement to be included in the proposed Universal Service Obligation (USO) specification. We have also proposed to include within the specification requirements for upload speed, contention (how many premises are using the network), latency (delays) and data capacity, which can all impact on what a consumer can do online.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 20/02/2018 16:35:11 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James
