<p>The Government has committed £740m through the National Productivity Investment
Fund to next generation digital infrastructure. We recently announced a £16 million
investment with leading 5G research institutions at King’s College London and the
Universities of Surrey and Bristol to develop a cutting-edge 5G test network to trial
this new technology by early 2018. This is the first step in the 5G Testbed and Trials
Programme and we expect to publish a prospectus later this year, which will provide
further detail on the next phase of the programme.</p>
