Letter to Bruton says eir’s broadband for €1bn claim interfers with procurement process
It says it is “critical” the other telecommunications are able to support “support an NBP process where consumer choice and equal treatment are at the forefront of the planned intervention”.
“The behaviour of a dominant player such as eir, tacitly interfering in a social policy measure that is pro-consumer and pro-competition and recognises the need to protect the State investment could have untold reputational and distortionary market impacts if the Government decides to either pause or scrap the NBP intervention as a consequence.”
It also says Mr Bruton’s officials “highlighted that the alleged financial delta between a concrete and compliant offer and one that is vague and non-compliant is substantially less than claimed by eir and crucially came with materially favourable terms to eir to the detriment of consumers, retailer operators and taxpayers”.
