"Mr President, I would like to congratulate Mr Hökmark on his report. Ladies and gentlemen, it is true that broadband has not been introduced equally in all of the Member States or in all of the regions. I would like to refer in particular to the island regions. The high cost of broadband networks and services and the lower returns from investments in island and sparsely-populated regions must never be a justification for restrictions to access. Any possible lack of incentive amongst providers as a result of scant commercial interest must be offset by strategies based on greater technological development and more innovation in order to provide operators with better opportunities for entering the market. Finally, I also wanted to stress the public service role of infrastructures and services relating to information and communications technologies; it falls to the public authorities to guarantee all of the citizens access to information and communications technologies so that they benefit the whole population without exceptions."@en1
