<p>As set out in the answer of 24 October 2019, the Government is determined to secure
nationwide coverage of gigabit capable broadband as soon as possible through the deployment
of full fibre broadband, upgraded gigabit networks and, potentially, other technologies
such as 5G fixed wireless access. The Government has not set targets for the proportion,
or number of premises to be covered by these different technologies, as we are focussed
on the outcome of better broadband connectivity for consumers, and we wish to encourage
innovation and increased network competition in this market.</p>
