Telecoms State Aid for Border Region
The European Commission has approved up to EUR30 million of joint UK and Irish State Aid to provide direct international underwater telecommunications connections to/from Northern Ireland and the Border Region. By linking Letterkenny and Monaghan to Derry where the submarine cable terminates, the assistance will help to offset the
impediment of the border to doing business. The investment is designed to bring the cost of international ‘backhaul
connectivity’ services (intermediate links between the backbone and the ''edge'' of the telecommunications network) in border counties into line with that of major urban areas of the two countries.
