Just 4,000 homes connected under the plan this year.
The National Broadband Plan has made 'effectively no progress at all', according to Irish Rural Link.
It's after it was revealed that just 4 thousand homes have been connected under the plan so far this year - well short of it's target of 115 thousand for 2021.
Reaching the National Broadband Plan targets are needed now more than ever as people continue to work from home and remote working is now a key part of #OurRuralFuture @smsboland @ruralnetwork @EamonRyan @DeptRCD @Dept_ECC @NewstalkFM https://t.co/upv2Ryn6xY
