Recital 11
(11) Given Internet connectivity needs within the Union and the urgency of promoting access networks that can deliver, throughout the EU, an Internet experience of high quality based on very high-speed broadband services, financial assistance should seek to attain a geographically balanced distribution, paying particular attention to rural regions and taking into account the disparities within regions.

Article 2 – paragraph 1 – point 6
Regulation (EU) No 283/2014
Annex – section 4 – paragraph 1
Actions aiming at the provision of free local wireless connectivity in the centres of local public life, including outdoor spaces accessible to the general public that play a major role in the public life of local communities, shall be eligible for financial assistance. In order for it to be fully used by the general public, potential linguistic barriers should be avoided. This means that it is recommended for the whole connection system to be available in English, French and the national language of the country involved.
