The money is being spent on new apprentice and graduate programmes aimed at enhancing the company’s skills base and building “an innovative, national communications network across Ireland”. In all, 375 places will be filled between this year and 2020.

Last year, Eircom exceeded its cost savings target of €100m and said that an extra €50m in savings over the next three years will come via non-pay costs like IT support, transportation and utility cost reductions.
