Taoiseach supports Oireachtas investigation into €5bn broadband plan

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said he supports an Oireachtas investigation into the national broadband plan, amid opposition warnings that billions of euro more must be found to fund the project.

Debate over the broadband plan rumbled on during Leaders Questions in the Dail with the Opposition also rubbishing a cost-benefit analysis into the high-speed network proposal for 540,000 premises.
