Community Fibre has built the largest FTTP network in central London without government subsidy by starting deployment in dense social housing and attracting interest from private landowners. Regulatory changes including new advertising standards from the ASA and infrastructure access regulations aim to stimulate demand for FTTP and make deployment easier, helping the UK increase its FTTP coverage.

Recommendation 6:
To stimulate the demand needed to drive FTTP investment, the ASA should review its
guidelines to ensure that future advertising of both FTTP and copper-fibre hybrid products
gives consumers the accurate information required to make informed choices.
