Connecting New Zealand to ultra-fast broadband

National’s plan to deliver ultra-fast broadband to New Zealanders is making great progress one year in.

The year one target has been exceeded by more than 6000 premises, with over 76,000 schools, businesses, hospitals, and households now covered by the network.

Ultra-fast broadband is a game changer. People will be able to connect with specialist teachers in virtual classrooms and the world’s best medical specialists, while businesses can connect with export markets around the world.

Building a more competitive and productive economy is one of National’s key priorities and connecting us to the world with ultra-fast broadband is a vital part of this.
