Essex County Council has called a meeting to discuss challenges facing Gigaclear's rollout of Fibre-to-the-Premises broadband networks in the county. The ISP provider is at the centre of numerous reports of delays stretching up to two years on similar government-backed contracts around the UK. The problems have been blamed on a lack of contractor capacity resulting from the collapse of pubic service outsourcing company Carillon, as well as management and planning issues. A management overhaul offers hope of a resolution but some councils remain in dispute with the company.
