	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/01/2022 answer text <p>At this stage, we are not able to confirm which specific locations will benefit from the Shared Rural Network (SRN) programme. In England, the majority of coverage improvements from the SRN will come from the industry funded and managed element of the programme, which will close the majority of partial not-spots - areas where there is currently coverage from at least one, but not all mobile network operators (MNOs).</p><p>The four MNOs have already commenced work on this element of the SRN, with more than 800 sites already announced, and work to improve coverage in other areas in progress. This aspect of the programme is on track to be delivered by June 2024.</p><p>In the East of England, 4G coverage from all four MNOs will rise to a minimum of 93% (up from 90% today) by the end of the programme.</p><p>The SRN is not the only focus for infrastructure investment in expanding mobile connectivity. MNOs independently invest around £2 billion annually in enhancing and improving their networks.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hornchurch and Upminster answering member printed Julia Lopez question first answered 11/01/2022 09:33:53 answering member 4647 label Biography information for Julia Lopez

As part of its broad scope, the Review is looking at the suitability of existing consumer redress arrangements and we called for evidence on whether changes are needed to better support individuals who feel they have been treated unfairly or harmed by gambling operators in breach of their social responsibility obligations.
