Liz Smith, Scottish Conservative MSP for Mid Scotland and Fife said has welcomed the 264 million investment in broadband. Liz Smith, Scottish Conservative MSP for Mid Scotland and Fife said: “I welcome this significant investment in Scotland’s broadband infrastructure. “Recent reports have shown that parts of the Perthshire and Kinross-shire have some of the lowest broadband speeds in the UK. It is therefore vital that we see investment in broadband for rural communities. Connecting rural communities must be the main priority. “It is important that this technology and infrastructure is made available to homes and businesses across Scotland and I have sought to lobby Ministers to prioritise investment for rural communities. I will continue to make the case for additional investment in broadband for rural communities.”
