WESTERN Isles MSP Alasdair Allan yesterday met with Cabinet Secretary for Rural Economy and Connectivity, Fergus Ewing MSP, to discuss future plans for the rollout of superfast fibre broadband to the Western Isles.
Since superfast was first brought to the islands in 2015, 166 cabinets have been activated across the islands. This has enabled superfast broadband for 75 per cent of the Western Isles.
