The national broadband policy of Finland • By 2015 100Mb broadband for everybody, 100Mb broadband public infrastructure • Strategy for job creation, keeping sparsely populated regions alive through networking and tele – work patterns Source: Ministry of Transports and Telecommunications of Finland
The national broadband policy of Finland • A new direction in telecommunications policy in December 2008. In future also public aid and more specific license terms for telecommunications operators will be used. This is because: • Rural areas are falling behind in the provision of services of information society if networks are developed purely on market terms • Broadband connections are no longer luxury products but necessary tools in day-to-day • Without adequate communications connections citizens cannot access information society services. • Some telecommunications operators are even cutting back services in the fixed copper telecommunications network in rural areas. • By the end of 2015 all permanent residences shall be within two kilometres reach of high-speed connection permitting at least 100 Mbit/s connections. • In built-up areas telecom operators will build high-speed connections on market terms. This will achieve a population coverage of around 95%. • Extending the coverage to 100% will require that partly subsidised high-speed connections will be built to around 130,000 households in rural areas.

The national broadband policy of Finland • Public aid – two thirds – will be provided by the state, municipalities and the EU. • The costs of the project will amount to about 200 million euros, of which telecom operators will pay at least one third. • Finnish government has allocated 66 million euros for the state aid. In addition, 25 million euros is coming from EU rural development fund and 40 million euros from municipalities. • Implementation in 2009−2015. • In 2012 proceeding of broadband programme will be evaluated and modified where necessary Source: Ministry of Transports and Telecommunications of Finland
