Paragraph 9
9. Welcomes the WiFi4EU initiative to promote free internet in local communities by means of an EU-funded scheme; notes that access speeds are increasing, and that as usage across multiple wireless devices grows, WLAN will need to match end-to-end connectivity demand, however, that Internet access for small and isolated countries and island areas is unfortunately expensive and leaves a lot to be desired in terms of quality and speed; recommends therefore that EU funding be earmarked for free and unrestricted Internet access in remote and island areas;
