Interesting thing was Colour .
"The legally binding coverage commitments will be enforced by Ofcom, which has the power to issue fines up to 10% of an operator’s gross revenue if they fail to meet their targets."
Also " Oliver Dowden MP, UK Digital Secretary, said:
“For too many people in the countryside a bad phone signal is a daily frustration.
So today we’re delivering on the Prime Minister’s 100-day promise to get a £1 billion landmark deal signed with industry to end poor and patchy mobile rural coverage.
This is an important milestone to level up the country, improve people’s lives and increase prosperity across the length and breadth of our United Kingdom.”
And further...."The new deal means that the four networks have committed to legally binding contracts and investing £532m to close almost all partial not-spots (areas where there is currently only coverage from at least one but not all operators). Meanwhile the Government’s £500m will be used to build new masts in total not spot areas, which are not usually commercially viable for operators to build in."
But you need the intelligence and concentration span to read the whole article lol.
