Description

Defra has a number of staff who are contractually home-workers. As part of their contract terms, they have the option of opting into home broadband provided free of charge by Defra. There are currently 5 separate agreements due to the original agreements pre-dating DgC Connectivity dealing with requirements from the whole Defra Group. In some instances, the connections are to small Defra Group office locations and telemetry. This contract consolidates all the legacy connections and upgrades all lines to FTTC where possible.
