answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/07/2014 answer text <p>The Mobile Infrastructure Project implementation plan identified seven potential masts for Cambridgeshire. Coverage by the mobile network operators has shifted as they begin roll out of 4G, leading to improvements in coverage in some areas and changes in the number and locations of not spots. DCMS officials and Arqiva, delivery partner for the Mobile Infrastructure Project, are incorporating these changes into the project's planning. Once this planning is finalised any changes will be communicated to planning authorities.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Wantage answering member printed Mr Edward Vaizey question first answered 21/07/2014 08:38:33 answering member 1580 label Biography information for Lord Vaizey of Didcot

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/07/2014 answer text The news release issued on MIP in July last year referred to sites being acquired and built by 2015. Intensive work is continuing to deliver coverage to areas currently without, and this project remains a high priority for the Government. Providing coverage to some of the more remote and sensitive locations has been challenging but this project has brought together the four mobile network operators for the first time to find solutions. Proposals and timeframes to tackle these issues and to secure long term mobile coverage capabilities for the future are being finalised with further communications expected in the autumn. answering member constituency Wantage answering member printed Mr Edward Vaizey question first answered 21/07/2014 08:30:09 answering member 1580 label Biography information for Lord Vaizey of Didcot
