Your response

Question 1: Do you agree with our proposal to make this spectrum available for fixed links? Are there other potential users of these frequencies which we have not identified? Confidential? – N

Yes. Other users could include people having a temporary need to maintain service as the networks move to fibre only.

Question 3: Do you agree that 28 and 32 GHz spectrum is broadly substitutable from a fixed links perspective? If not, please explain why this is the case and provide evidence to support your views.
