Anne-Marie has welcomed the Government's decision to introduce a Broadband Universal Service Obligation - to ensure a minimum level of service at the request of the consumer, within a reasonable price threshold. It is the price threshold which is of key importance for people living in Northumberland, and the reason that I intend to follow the new Digital Economy Bill - in which the USO will be introduced - very carefully as it comes before Parliament in the autumn. My priority will be to ensure the Bill represents real, tangible change and improvements for my constituents.
If you would like to be kept informed of my progress in this area, please email annemarie.trevelyan.mp@parliament.uk with the subject 'Broadband updates'.
