A public meeting to discuss broadband services across Pembrokeshire was recently hosted by local Assembly Member Paul Davies. Mr Davies invited the Welsh Government’s Leader of the House Julie James, who is the Welsh Government Cabinet Secretary responsible for the roll out of broadband to address members of the public at a packed meeting in Maenclochog Community Hall.

He said, “The availability of decent broadband services has long been a problem for communities across Pembrokeshire and I’m pleased that the Leader of the House attended the public meeting to listen to the concerns of my constituents. It’s quite clear that this a priority for many people across Pembrokeshire and that was reflected in the strong attendance at the meeting. Concerns ranging from having poor access and speed, to simply not having access at all and so I hope the Leader of the House will take on-board these concerns and work to ensure that Pembrokeshire isn’t left behind in the future. It was quite clear from the meeting that people were frustrated and sometimes angry regarding being unable to access sufficient broadband services. Of course, I will continue to keep raising this issue with the Welsh Government at the Assembly and call for much needed improvements until communities across Pembrokeshire have access to the first-class broadband services that they need and deserve.”
