It guarantees £5 billion of investment in mobile infrastructure, and as a result mobile services will come to some areas for the first time. It will halve partial not-spots (where the is coverage from at least one MNO, but not all four), and cut total not spots by two thirds by end 2017. Additionally, Telefonica has a licence obligation to deliver indoor 4G coverage to 98% of premises in the UK by 2017. Other MNOs have indicated that they will match this commitment.</p> answering member constituency Wantage answering member printed Mr Edward Vaizey question first answered 26/01/2016 15:14:36 answering member 1580 label Biography information for Lord Vaizey of Didcot
