Subject: Have you seen the article in the Daily Post on broadband?
Dear All,
Dylan Jones-Evans has written an article on the 10 August 2009 in the Daily Post discussing the Welsh Affairs Select Committee report. I loved the quote below:
"The report by the Welsh Affairs Select Committee is a welcome first step but if we are to create a truly digital society, we must not only build a world class broadband network in Wales but also give everyone the skills to access it properly. If not, it is like buying a seventeen year old a Ferrari without paying for the driving lessons first."
