T6. There are currently 1.2 million flats in multi-dwelling units across the UK that are at risk of missing out on full fibre upgrades, including 3,528 in my constituency. This leaves a real danger that a digital divide becomes a reality, and vulnerable people will miss out on the benefits of faster and more reliable broadband. Will the Minister consider granting automatic upgrade rights for network builders as a cost-neutral solution that will ensure everybody has access?
