14.11.11 For immediate release: Bexhill MP, Greg Barker, is to hold a roundtable meeting for local businesses to update them on the Local Broadband Plan for East Sussex on Friday 16 December at 10am at the De La Warr Pavilion. Guest speaker will be Cllr Peter Jones, Leader of East Sussex County Council.
Following his meetings with local Chambers of Commerce during the summer, Greg assured businesses of his full support for ensuring that the rollout of superfast broadband remains a top priority for those living and working in the Bexhill and Battle the constituency.
Speaking in Bexhill, Greg said “I am determined that Bexhill and Battle will be at the forefront of the broadband revolution so I am delighted that Cllr Peter Jones has agreed to be guest speaker at the Business Broadband Roundtable meeting that I have organised for local businesses. I know how important quick and reliable broadband is especially to small and medium-sized enterprises. I hope that this roundtable will be a great opportunity for local businesses to find out more about the Local Broadband Plan and to ask the questions important to local firms.”
The meeting is open to all local businesses but places are limited and need to be booked in advance. Please contact Frances McKenna at the Constituency Office on 01424 734910 or [email protected] to secure a place.
