The only underground cabling scheme in progress in the general area mentioned is that between Nobber, which serves the Kilmainhamwood area, and Wilkinstown. This is scheduled to be completed by July next.

Have I an assurance that this will be completed by July? The underground piping has been laid for two years but very little work has been done on this project during the past 12 months. A number of business people are waiting for the cable to be laid in order to get phones. I feel very annoyed about this.
