Assembly Member for Preseli Pembrokeshire, Paul Davies, has organised a public meeting to discuss concerns regarding inadequate access to broadband. Paul invited the Welsh Government Cabinet Member responsible for digital infrastructure, Julie James AM who will be attending. Also in attendance at the meeting will be an official from BT Openreach.

Commenting on the issue, Paul Davies said “For many years I have been campaigning for better broadband services in Preseli Pembrokeshire. It’s deeply frustrating that whilst other parts of Wales are leaping ahead with superfast broadband, many parts of Pembrokeshire still do not have access to basic services. Given the continued importance of online services in our lives, it’s absolutely vital that Pembrokeshire is well connected.”

“I am very pleased that the Welsh Government’s Cabinet Member responsible for digital infrastructure, Julie James AM, has accepted my invitation to attend the meeting. This will give people the opportunity to ask questions of the Cabinet Secretary and also the BT Openreach official.”

The meeting is to be held at 5pm on Thursday 21st June at the Maenclochog Community Hall, SA66 7LA. To book a place please contact Paul Davies’ office on 01437 766425 or e-mail Paul.Davies@assembly.wales.
